Black lives matter.

We stand in support of Black lives, Black joy, Black business, and Black futures. As our community reckons with the long history of systemic racial oppression, we are committed to work that closes the gap of inequity in small business funding and support.

The Contest

For the past nine years, Hatch Detroit has run a contest that awards up-and-coming entrepreneurs a cash grant to build out their brick and mortar storefronts. In 2020, we’re celebrating 10 years of the contest and a decade of impact with small business in Detroit’s neighborhoods.

44 of the businesses who have competed have opened their storefronts, while more are navigating their way to opening in the coming months.

Neighborhood Initiative

In addition to investing in up and coming retail through the annual contest, Hatch Detroit has also supported established small businesses in three retail corridors: Grandmont Rosedale, West Village and the Avenue of Fashion.
