The story behind Blactrium
Blactrium, pronounced BLAC-TREE-UM, was founded by London-based professional, Alan Higgins, driven by one clear vision: to create a modern, trusted, and unified space where Black professionals and Black businesses can be discovered, celebrated, and elevated.
Despite the brilliance, talent, and entrepreneurial spirit within the Black community, there has never been one central place where the world can easily find us, review us, and choose us — until now.
Our motto — “See Us, Choose Us, Grow With Us” — represents the essential ‘trium’ that transforms visibility into empowerment, choice into opportunity, and entrepreneurship into legacy. When the community sees itself and invests in itself, the cycle of growth becomes powerful — and unstoppable.
Blactrium was built from a shared need: a sleek, modern, and inclusive platform that highlights Black excellence while giving the public confidence through verified reviews and transparent experiences. It exists to raise standards, encourage accountability, and push Black businesses to operate at their professional best — not only to serve their community but to shine globally.
