DesignHammer nominated for Chamber Business of the Year Award

DesignHammer has been nominated for the Chapel Hill-Carrboro Chamber of Commerce's 2008 Business of the Year Awards. The awards are presented annually by the Chamber to one small, mid-size, large and newcomer business/organization at the organization’s Annual Meeting at the end of January, typically attended by more than 400 local business and community leaders.

"We are honored to be recognized by our peers for the work we do," said DesignHammer Managing Partner David Minton. He added "Win or lose, we find great value in our Chamber membership, due to the great work they do both for businesses like ours, as well as for the community as a whole."

The Business of the Year Awards (one recipient each for small, mid-size, and large categories) are presented to the outstanding Chamber member organizations that, having been under the same ownership or management for at least three years, have shown growth, innovation of product, exemplary customer service, response to adversity, and/or contribution to the community. The Business Newcomer of the Year Award is presented to the outstanding Chamber member organization, less than three years old, that has shown innovation in its field, creativity in its start up, likelihood of long-term success, and contribution to the community.

Three finalists in each category will be selected, with winners determined via blind ballot by the Chamber's Board of Directors. The 2008 winners will be announced Tuesday, January 27th as part of the Chamber's Annual Meeting at the Carolina Club, on the UNC campus, in Chapel Hill. DesignHammer was last selected as a finalist in 2007, for the 2006 Small Business of the Year Award.
