The Henderson-Vance Chamber of Commerce is looking for nominees for the 2019 Small Business of the Year. This is your opportunity to recognize an outstanding business in the small business community.

You are encouraged to nominate chamber member businesses that are deserving of this recognition. Local small businesses are certainly deserving of recognition, as we have especially seen during these last few weeks.

 2019 Small Business of the Year Criteria:

• Employs a maximum of 50 people
• Member of the Henderson-Vance Chamber of Commerce and must be located in Vance County
• Must be a viable, on-going business for three or more years, experiencing growth or stability over its business life
• Provides critical service or products, fills a void in the business community, or has a unique approach to the delivery of goods and services
• May have overcome diverse or extraordinary circumstances to remain in business
• Business is supportive of community growth and sustainability
• Is not a governmental agency or municipality

Anyone can nominate a business they believe deserves recognition and meets the criteria. Companies may also nominate themselves.

Nominations are due to the H-V Chamber no later than 5 p.m. on Friday, April 17, 2020. All applications are confidential.

For a nomination form or if you have questions, please email michele@hendersonvance.org or call the H-V Chamber at (252) 438-8414.
