Macedonian Americans in business

Census estimates put Macedonian Americans at roughly 60,000–70,000, and community estimates are far higher.

Metro Detroit is the largest centre. Macomb County has the highest Macedonian share of any US county, and Michigan has more Macedonian speakers than any other state. The New York area is the other major hub, especially Garfield and Bergen County in New Jersey, with communities in Ohio, Indiana and Illinois as well.

Macedonian Americans have a long tradition of family businesses, especially restaurants, diners and bakeries, alongside construction, trades and the professions.

Community life centres on Macedonian Orthodox churches, village associations and youth and student organizations. BABO doesn't replace any of it. It gives the business owners in those communities one place to find each other, trade referrals and meet.
