Miami, FL (July 10, 2024) – Kreyòl Essence, a pioneering social impact enterprise, is proud to announce its selection as a Semifinalist for the prestigious Black Ambition Awards. This recognition underscores Kreyòl Essence's commitment to creating clinically backed haircare and skincare products enriched with nutrient-rich ingredients from Haiti.

The Black Ambition Awards, founded by Pharrell Williams, aim to empower Black and Latinx entrepreneurs who are launching tech, design, healthcare, and consumer product companies. Black Ambition is a non-profit initiative working to close the opportunity and wealth gap through entrepreneurship. Black Ambition invests capital and resources in high-growth startups founded by Black and Hispanic entrepreneurs.
