👏 Huge congratulations to the AAPI youth leaders behind Just Say Hello: A Youth-Led Look at AAPI-Owned Businesses and Belonging in Medford for an inspiring project.

ABEC was honored to join the City of Medford, the Medford Chamber of Commerce, GMAACC, community members, and local business owners to celebrate the findings of this youth-led initiative highlighting the experiences and contributions of AAPI-owned businesses in Medford.

The students delivered an exceptional presentation, sharing thoughtful research, compelling stories, and meaningful insights about belonging, community, and entrepreneurship. We were especially excited to see ABEC's Setting Roots in Rocky Soil report featured prominently throughout the presentation, helping provide important context about the challenges and opportunities facing AAPI-owned businesses across Massachusetts.

Thank you to the youth leaders for your hard work, curiosity, and leadership, and to all the partners who supported this effort. Your work demonstrates the power of research, storytelling, and community engagement to spark meaningful conversations and strengthen local connections. 💙

📈 Boston's retail market is changing with Asian-owned businesses.

A recent article on The Boston Globe, written by Alexa Gagosz, discussed the impact of mainstream Asian media on global trends and how there has been a large shift in Boston retailers showing a rapid growth in many Asian-lifestyle stores.

No need for to travel for an online trend, Boston's demand to experience Asian-influenced lifestyle, from Korean beauty products to Japanese houseware, is now met with providers within reach. The market, like other cities, traced back to the late 1800s wave of immigrants from China seeking familiar tastes, so Boston's Chinatown was established.

The trend expands beyond Boston with recognizable stores, such as H-Mart, Muji, Teso Life, etc. The article also features many AAPI business owners and their insights about this market change.
