The Coco Drip is making a stop in a city near you! The Coco Drip is focused on bringing together Black women-owned businesses, in a space created by Black women.

The Coco Drip is the brainchild of entrepreneur Uyi Idahor and educator Brianna Kennedy, both of Durham, NC. The vision for the event began in January of 2020, where the two decided to bring their hometown an intimate shopping experience for Black women in the area to attend; something they both realized was missing from their daily lives. The original event, planned for Women’s History Month of 2020, was, of course, postponed because of the COVID-19 pandemic. In October of 2020, the two revised their original plans to respond to the safety needs of their community, while also holding high their intended purpose; to bring Black women together to celebrate and support Black women-owned businesses.
