This store always has what I need. Small shop with great ownership. It’s a very friendly and welcoming store with authentic soaps, butters, and beautiful garments and accessories. I will be heading back soon to restock on my black African bar soap!

Here at Unan Imports I received top notch service from the friendliest and most helpful owner. My favorite items to purchase were my earrings and clothing along with body creams and oils! I will continue to come regularly to make purchases!

So many beautiful items and all at great competitive pricing. The spread is varied, with clothing, accessories like hats and purses, jewelry, incense and cones, as well as butters, oils, and home decor. The store runner is also friendly and helpful, answering any questions. Definitely a stop worth your time!

Felt as though I was transported into an oasis of beautiful African art, jewelry, clothing, instruments, and perfumes! It was reasonably priced and had a lovely staff. Would come again and again if I could.

On 8/3/2025 Kennedy Murray had this to say:
Al is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable! I love the wide variety of cultural pieces such as clothing, shea butter, body oil, and incense. He helped me understand how to tell if an oil blends with my skin well and now I have a signature scent I enjoy! I HIGHLY recommend visiting this store and supporting this black owned business!
