A soul food restaurant in the Russell neighborhood held a grand reopening Friday with help from Louisville’s first incubator dedicated to Black entrepreneurs.
Pamela Haines, the owner of Sweet Peaches Soup, Sandwiches and Specialties located at 18th and Muhammad Ali, is a member of the Russell Technology Business Incubator, which launched earlier this year to provide resources and training to leaders of Black-owned businesses.
“I’ve been in business for eight years,” Haines said. “Of course, I thought I knew it all.”
Haines said she had always known how to cook good and healthy food for the community, but after working through the incubator’s programs, she now has a better understanding of how to make money. She said she has been getting help from accountants and other experts through the RTBI.
