Diversifying the retail marketplace for Black-owned and Brown-owned brands by brick and click.
Spaces With Stories to Tell
Nubian Hueman has become a catalyst for culture, community, and the development of the creative economy by connecting conscious consumers to over 700 emerging Black and Brown artists and brands from 35 countries serving as a means to promote collective interaction, community development, and global responsibility through a fresh and artistic brick-and-mortar experience.
What we do
We curate collections rooted in authenticity, uniqueness, and culture. Our products are thoughtfully designed and sourced to help bring timeless traditions to the modern day.
We partner with Black-owned and Brown-owned brands from around the world, connecting them with our retail spaces and experiences that bring culture and good design to your everyday lifestyle.
In a world riddled with inequity in the marketplace, we serve as a platform for purposeful shopping that is unapologetic and intentional.
Hey Family! I'm Anika, the founder of Nubian Hueman
With over 15 years of multi-level, national, and international retail trade with one of the world’s leading fast fashion-retail brands, my interest in the convergence of fashion, interior design, and travel to Africa, Central America, Asia, and Europe, fueled my charge in amplifying Black and Brown brands, product development, and curated retail experiences.
We build spaces that allow for Black consumers to be seen, heard, and nurtured.
Since opening Nubian Hueman in 2013, this journey has led to speaking on panels for universities, conferences, and entrepreneurs on business and social impact such as at the HERImpact by Ford Motor Company. Nubian Hueman has received recognition from Pres. Barack Obama, Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton, Forbes, Fast Company, The Washington Post, NPR, The Washington Business Journal, and awarded The Best Physical Manifestation of Black Excellence by The Washington City Paper.
