In light of the sharp increase in racist attacks on the Asian community across the world, we have put together a list of Asian owned businesses in LA for you to support. This list of Asian-owned businesses in LA is a result of collaboration across our global community and is by no means exhaustive. There are so many more incredible businesses out there and we welcome all suggestions. We’ll be updating this guide regularly, so if you feel like sharing, please email 

 We'd like to thank Sevasti for helping us put this list together.
