THE BATTLEFORDS — The Battlefords Business Excellence (BBEX) Awards committee and the Battlefords and District Chamber of Commerce have announced the opening of nominations for the 2023 BBEX Awards, which will close at midnight on May 25.

"The 29th (BBEX) Awards will shine a light on the vision, generosity, knowledge and sustained excellence that business has shown as they continue to emerge from the unprecedented challenges of a global pandemic, supply chain issues, workforce shortages, and more," a release from the chamber said.

The full list of awards for 2023 is as follows:

  • New Business Venture Award
  • Community Contribution Award
  • Heather Guthrie Customer Service Star Award (Business owner or Entrepreneur)
  • Agriculture and Agri-Business Award
  •  Young Entrepreneur Award
  • Micro Business Award
  •  Member’s Choice Award
  •  Impact Award
  •  Business of the Year

The Heather Guthrie Customer Service Star Award will now alternate each year between an individual or employee and the business and its owners. In 2023, the focus will be on the business and its owner.

The committee is planning for an in-person event this year, with a full banquet and celebration gala program, held Nov. 8 at the Dekker Centre.

“We are thrilled to be planning and hosting the BBEX awards program again this year. It is always so great to celebrate the business community, see them come together and receive recognition for their contributions and hard work,” says Samantha Weber, BBEX committee co-chair.

“... we look forward to watching all of the nominations come in and encourage you to nominate," she continued, noting that they're fortunate to have many great businesses and hardworking people in the Battlefords.

Public nominations will be accepted through the Chamber's website, at: www.battlefordschamber.com.
