February 1st Marks The Start of Black History Month!
Posted by KENNETH GREEN
February 1st marks the start of Black History Month, a time to honor and celebrate the achievements and contributions of Black individuals and communities. This year, we look back on one of our proudest moments as business owners when we were selected for Oprah's Favorite Things list in 2020.
Oprah's annual list is highly anticipated and widely respected, and we were thrilled to see our matching pajamas included among the 50 Black-owned and created businesses featured. Oprah has a well-known love for pajamas, so being recognized by her was truly an honor.
This inclusion on Oprah's list was a pivotal moment in the growth of our business. It was validation that our designs and products were worthy of recognition on a national level, and it helped to propel our brand to new heights. It was also a powerful reminder that dreams can come true, even in the face of adversity and uncertainty.
In addition to being featured in Oprah's magazine, our matching pajamas also made it to the top of the list on Amazon, further solidifying their popularity and success.
One of the great things about Oprah's Favorite Things list is that it shines a spotlight on small businesses like ours. As a family-owned and operated business, we are deeply grateful for the opportunity to share our designs with a wider audience and to be recognized alongside other Black-owned businesses.
Our excitement was captured in a surprise video meeting with Oprah which can be viewed on our Kaans Family Vlog YouTube page.
As we reflect on Black History Month, we would like to express our appreciation to our customers who have been on our journey with us and continue to support our family business inspired by our three children. We are honored to be a part of this community and to have the opportunity to contribute to the ongoing effort to promote and celebrate Black excellence.
