Meet the CEO
My name is DeJane' I. Manuel and I am the Chief Executive Officer and Founder of DIM Enterprises, Inc. Being from the east side of Cleveland, Ohio, I have been blessed with many opportunities and resources that most around me weren't able to have. I have also seen where my community was in desperate need of resources and safe spaces. Since I was 5 years old, I've been submerged into Black Entertainment as a performer and aficionado. I've been creating and preparing delicious dishes since the age of 7, constantly finding new ways to learn about food and how to make it entertaining yet delicious. Developing a work ethic at an early age has carried me into the driven, passionate and ambitious entrepreneur I am today. I knew that if I could share the same knowledge, skills, talents, opportunities and resources with as many people as possible, I could truly make a difference.
Each and every business comprised of DIME is intricately designed to operate and serve as a one stop shop for all your needs, resources and opportunities. Although certain components of DIME are specifically targeted at predominant demographics, we aim to positively impact 1,000,000 + lives, from every walk of life, with our resources and services.
