Here To Give Back
Here & Now Snacks provides young people a first hand entrepreneurship experience by assisting with the establishment of local snack based businesses. As more young individuals desire to become self-employed many face three main challenges; a lack of coaching, resources, and systematic knowledge. Having to learn the hard way, I want to apply my mistakes to others' success. Franchising the name Here & Now Snacks, I offer not starting from scratch by providing branding, logistical support, and legalities with the bonus of offering co-ownership, personal coaching, and assistance securing funding. Always wanting to be self-employed but never having anyone give me a chance, currently having my own platform I want to give others the chance I was never afforded.
Buying Black is Buying Better
Taking care of your needs as we would our own community. We guarantee reliable machines with fresh and affordable snacks. Listening to your organization we offer a customized experience with the added bonus of knowing that you are supporting Black.
