KSTP 5 Eyewitness News also produced a piece on a recent nonpartisan study showing how immigration has positively contributed to Minnesota's economy and we were happy to share our experiences.

We're proud to have our story highlighted in an article in MinnPost titled "Immigration has become a 'driving force' in Minnesota's eonomy."

Abdirahman Kahin, owner and operator of Afro Deli and Catering in Minneapolis, applauded the study for highlighting the contributions his immigrant community is making.  

"It’s important that Minnesotans learn about the success stories of immigrants and their economic contributions, Kahin said Sunday. “We’re not only here [to make a living] — We’re here to contribute.”
