Omaha’s Melanin Market celebrates fifth year at new venue

OMAHA, Neb. —

The Melanin Market celebrated its fifth year by bringing together a curated mix of minority-owned businesses from across the metro at the Omaha Design Center.

“We would go to these large, vendor markets, and we didn’t see a lot of minority-owned businesses present. So we wanted to create space for local minority-owned businesses in our community,” Ty Nared said.
