This Online Marketplace Helps Canadians Support BIPOC Biz For The Holidays (Win!)

December 17, 2020

As we enter the end of holiday shopping season, we’re looking for ways to make our last-minute gift bucks make a really big bang! Enter Ujimaa—an online marketplace that amplifies Canadian BIPOC-owned businesses, founded by Jordan Subban. From jewelry to clothing to beauty products, Ujimaa offers a platform that makes it easier to find products sold by BIPOC creators and business owners, with each product clearly marked as Indigenous-owned, Black-owned, women-owned etc. Below, some of our top gift picks available on Ujimaa, plus a $441 giveaway you won’t want to miss! —Vita Daily

He’ll look festive and fly in this vintage CAL-ALTA Van Club Revolt Patchless Denim Jacket ($148) by ANY7 MARKET.

Wintertime calls for cosy knits, and this PWR Harbour Beanie ($40) by Brimz fits the bill! Roll it short, or unfold to wear it long and slouchy.

Culture Shock Jewelry is an Indigenous and woman-owned business focused on jewelry and crafts. We love the Triangle Gold V Hook Earrings ($30) made from stainless-steel components.

Love Butter (from $20) by jELN is guaranteed to become a staple in any body-care regimen; it moisturizes and keeps skin feeling soft throughout the day. Whipped to perfection, expect a smooth silky application where a little goes a long way.

Ain’t no thing like a chain ring! By Monoxide, this Medium Curb Chain Ring ($45) is handcrafted in Canada, easy to stack and comes in silver or gold.

A fun piece for the home, VILLUTUS DREAMS (from $42) is part of a series of lip art by The Dezinr, where the message at its core is one of attraction.
