Necessary & Sufficient Coffee
Moments should be shared, not donuts.

They only use local, fresh, whole and organic ingredients. If it’s going in your body, then it better be good.
The heart of the South Loop isn’t just in its skyline - it’s in the small businesses that give our neighborhood its soul. Every time you shop at a local, woman-owned business, you’re investing in the community in ways that matter. These are the places that greet you by name, bring life to our streets, and make the South Loop a truly special place to call home. Even more, the women behind these businesses are not just owners - they’re your neighbors. They live in the South Loop, walk these same streets, and are deeply invested in the growth and well-being of our community.
why shop small?
For every dollar spent at a local business, 68 cents stays in the community compared to just 43 cents at national chains.
Women reinvest up to 90% of their earnings back into their familiesand communities, strengthening the local economy.
Small businesses create two out of every three new jobs in the U.S. - helping our neighbors thrive and keeping our community strong.
From cozy cafes to yoga studios, unique consignment stores to candle shops, these women-owned businesses are the heartbeat of our neighborhood. When you support them, you’re not just making a purchase - you’re making a difference.
Here are just a few of the incredible businesses you can visit today:
