Schweet Cheesecake Supports Entrepreneurs in Ujamaa Program

Schweet Cheesecake knows how important entrepreneurship is to a community.  That's why we started the retail program called Ujamaa.  Ujamaa is Swahili for cooperative economics, so in this spirit, we invite local sellers to display and sell their products on our shelves.  When you visit our cafe you'll be able to browse and purchase one-of-a-kind eyewear, handmade candles and even limited edition custom printed enamel pins from local entrepreneurs.  Take a look and buy local!
