This year’s event promises to be our largest and most exciting yet, featuring over 80 exhibitors and employers, dedicated support for small business owners, numerous job opportunities, and a special celebration of Haitian Flag Day.

The Haitian American Business Expo and Job Fair has become a cornerstone event for the community, fostering economic growth, networking, and cultural pride. Attendees will have the unique opportunity to connect with leading businesses, explore career options, and access valuable resources tailored to support small business development.

Event Highlights:

This provides an excellent platform for job seekers to discover new opportunities and for businesses to find top talent.

These sessions are designed to assist entrepreneurs in navigating the complexities of running a business.
