BUFFALO, N.Y. (WKBW) — The first family Black-owned UPS store in Western New York is located at 345 Broadway and has become the hub for many in the area.

“It’s an asset,” says Raquel Gibson. “We don’t have to go far, it’s needed. I’m glad that we have this business and it’s awesome. I’m hoping that it brings more businesses like this here because they’re needed.”

The shipping and delivery store was established by Dr. Uzo Ihenko and his son Kelechi Chillis-Ihenko who graduated with an MBA and wanted to stay in Buffalo to help serve his community.
