Detroit Liquor Store Adds an Art Gallery and a Jamaican Kitchen
Liquor Basket now shares its space with local artists and a food vendor, a mix Black Enterprise says gives independent retailers new ways to earn.
Black Enterprise reports, citing Axios Detroit, that Liquor Basket on Detroit's east side has grown from a neighborhood store into a hub with an in-store art gallery called Push Gallery and a walk-up Jamaican carryout window run by Jamaica Mi Hungry 313. The outlet says the store also stocks beverage brands from Black owners and plans a late-November art, wine and DJ event. The money lesson: when a small retailer shares its space with other entrepreneurs, each business can benefit from the same foot traffic and give customers more reasons to come back.
