The nominations are in and there are but 31 days left to make your vote count for three Prince Rupert businesses that are up for the Small Business BC Awards for 2016.
The first call for nominations went out on October 1st and since that time the list of competitors has grown each and every day as those that operate small businesses, or those that think that their favourite place is worthy of recognition submit their entries.
For the North Coast there are three Prince Rupert entries to date that have been nominated. Some familiar names grabbing their placement in the following categories, Best Community Impact, Best Marketer, Best Company and the Premier's People's Choice Award.

The final decisions are made in mid February and the winners receive their acclaim on February 27th when the Small Business Awards are handed out at a Gala celebration at the Pan Pacific Hotel in Vancouver.
