Ces dernieres annees le nombre d'entreprises crees par des Noirs a fait un bond de 45% (entre 1997 et 2002). Le nombre d'entreprises qui appartiennent a des Noirs est ainsi passe de 824.000 a 1,2 million alors que la moyenne nationale pour l'ensemble des USA a la meme periode n'a ete que de 10%. Dans des villes comme Washington les Noirs possedent 25% des businesses. Ce pourcentage st entre 12 et 15% dans les Etats du Maryland, de Georgiie, du Mississippi, et de la Louisiane. Dans certains Etats comme le Michigan le taux de creation d'entreprises noires a ete de 78% ou de 71% en Floride.
Ces entreprises noires ont genere 92,7 milliards de dollars en 2002, soit une croissance de 30% sur cinq (5) ans.
Une autre preuve, s'il en faut de la competitivite des Noirs dans tous les domaines et des progres importants qu'ils font chaque jour sur la voie de leur emancipation economique et sociale.

Michigan and Florida experience surge in African American-owned firms
By Cliff Hocker
April 20, 2006 -- States such as Michigan and Florida have experienced a surge in the number of black-owned businesses, according to a Census Bureau survey.
African Americans own 25% of the businesses in Washington, D.C., and black-owned businesses accounted for between 12% and 15% of all firms in Maryland, Georgia, Mississippi, and Louisiana. Among the states with the largest African American populations, Michigan had a turbocharged 78% growth in black-owned businesses; Florida a hot 71%. Downsizing within the automobile industry may have inspired some black residents of Michigan to become entrepreneurs, suspects David Swinton, a member of the BLACK ENTERPRISE Board of Economists.
Black business growth significantly outpaced the national average. While the number of U.S. businesses increased by 10% between 1997 and 2002, from roughly 20.8 million to 23 million, the number of black-owned businesses grew 45%, from 824,000 to 1.2 million.
In 2002, black businesses pulled in $92.7 billion, a 30% increase over five years. Receipts for the 94,862 black-owned businesses with paid employees totaled $69.8 billion; the 1.1 million black-owned businesses without paid employees had receipts of $22.9 billion, up 54% from 1997.
Clues to what’s driving growth, says Swinton, are contained within industry breakouts by state. Thirty-eight percent of black-owned businesses, for example, operated in the healthcare and other service industries. Another possibility is that the black business community is experiencing an economic take-off that is strong enough to keep high growth going. |
