Bellafricana partnered with Salesforce to host a special Christmas marketplace at the Salesforce HQ in London, UK. This Bellafricana Christmas Marketplace With Salesforce marked Bellafricana’s second partnership with Salesforce after our first in October to celebrate Black History month.

Salesforce is a global leader in customer relationship management (CRM) and has been a strong advocate for black-owned small businesses and independent African creatives. Beyond providing technology solutions, they actively create opportunities for small businesses to reach wider audiences and grow. This collaboration with Bellafricana is part of Salesforce’s ongoing efforts to support diversity and inclusion by helping African entrepreneurs showcase their talents on a global stage.

Salesforce has been a great ally in helping our members reach a global audience, and this collaboration has further highlighted their commitment to supporting small businesses and African creatives.

A Growing Partnership With Salesforce

Our partnership with Salesforce began in October, when we worked together to celebrate Black History Month. That first collaboration gave African creatives a platform to share their stories, connect with global audiences, and showcase their unique talents. Building on that success, this Christmas marketplace was another incredible opportunity to spotlight our community and celebrate African innovation.
