Browse the 2022 AAPI-Owned Holiday Gift Guide

Holiday shopping has officially begun! This time of year isn’t just busy for shoppers, but it’s also an essential season for most small business owners. As you search for the perfect present for your loved ones, we encourage you to support local and shop from the Sacramento small business community.

For the third year in a row, SacAsian’s marketing & events team has curated a 2022 AAPI-Owned Holiday Gift Guide so you can easily shop for gifts and support local Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) businesses in the process. Whether you want to walk and shop Sacramento’s brick-and-mortar stores, or if you prefer to stay home and shop online, there’s something for everyone in the gift guide.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, 60% of surveyed Asian businesses in California reported a significant negative effect on their business due to the pandemic, compared to 40% of all businesses in California. The pandemic continues to disproportionately impact our AAPI small businesses, which are not only vital to our economy, but also to the rich cultural community in Sacramento.

With this in mind, know that you’re making a difference by shopping small and supporting the business owners and entrepreneurs in your neighborhoods. As you shop this holiday season, download or print the guide below, take it with you, or use the clickable links to shop directly online. A shortened version of the guide is also available on our Instagram (@sacasiancc). However you choose to view and use the gift guide, remember to #SupportLocal and #ShopAAPI!
