After opening right before the pandemic and finding new ways to execute their unique vision, Bea’s Detroit is the Editors Pick for Best Business Innovator! Starting on the first floor is their warehouse, where small businesses can manufacture their goods on-site. Bea's Detroit (Beatrice Wolnerman)“The café has retail space for our members to sell the goods they’ve made here,” Wolnerman said. In order to replicate the Bea’s experience during the pandemic, Wolnerman launched a virtual community called “BeaHive.”“It allowed us to give our members the same benefits they’d get in person at Bea’s,” Wolnerman said. “When you buy something at Bea’s, 100% of that money is going back into one of our small businesses," Wolnerman said.
