HERITAGE HILL'S STORY
Brandon Z. Hoff started Heritage Hill in 2019 after noticing a lack of diversity in the world of collegiate merchandise. He planned to supply apparel to historically Black colleges while also enabling students to make products for their schools.
"The goal was to unify the Black entrepreneurial community with the Black consumer," Brandon said.
Brandon learned about Co-op Cincy from a friend and took part in our Business Legacy Fund program in 2021. He was looking for a way to "participate in capitalism without being predatory."
