 Welcome to the African-American Listing, the Internet connection to Tampa Bay Area Black businesses. The African American Listing was first produced in May of 1999. Mr. James Evans,  Executive Director of the Tampa Bay Academy of Hope, Inc., addressed a need in the African-American community to identify and promote African American business ownership throughout the Tampa Bay area. The creation of the African American Listing is a powerful resource, with over 15,000 copies distributed throughout Tampa, St. Petersburg and Clearwater during the past three years.

The mission of the African-American Listing is to allow minority business to realize their full economic  and social potential by improving the community's awareness of and access to the unique goods and services that each establishment has to offer.

The African-American Listing provides the printed free printed directory which is a comprehensive, professionally assembled, aggregation of Tampa Bay's emerging and well established businesses. This website is the electronic companion to the physical directory and more. There are informative articles in the Business Resources pages, historical information of local Black businesses and comprehensive data on the Black population and it's influential leadership.
