Ebony Cochran, a mompreneur from Detroit, Michigan, has made history as the first and only Black woman in the city to own a Little Caesars Pizza franchise. She purchased one as a gift to herself on her birthday.
“I bought a franchise (and I came drive-thru)! Family this was hard to keep from you but I’ve learned to wait until the ink is dry to speak on things. I wanted to give myself the opportunity to run a business and not just be self-employed,” she shared on Instagram along with her photos at her new franchise.
According to the Michigan Chronicle, Ebony, who is also celebrating her 15 years of entrepreneurship, said buying the franchise was made possible because of her other successful business ventures such as Blackwood Credit Services, and The Tax Place, which she sold to H&R Block. She was even able to make the purchase in cash to avoid the worry of making monthly payments.
