Each year, the Greater Concord community celebrates a business, small business, nonprofit, and business leader who has demonstrated professional excellence and worked to make a positive impact on the Capital Region. The Pinnacle Awards Luncheon serves as an important way to thank those who go above and beyond to support our community. The Greater Concord Chamber of Commerce is honored to announce the 2024 honorees:
Small Business of the Year: Lilise Designer Resale
Business of the Year: JH Spain Commercial Services, LLC
Nonprofit Business of the Year: Capital Region Food Program
Business Leader of the Year: Leslie Walker, Mason + Rich, Professional Association
The Chamber’s Pinnacle Awards event also includes recognition of the 2024 Concord Young Professional of the Year, Chad Johnson of NHTI-Concord’s Community College, and the W. Grant McIntosh Volunteer of the Year, David Juvet of Business & Industry Association of NH.
Pinnacle Award recipients have received their awards with moving expressions of gratitude, standing ovations from the audience, and tears of joy. “When each honoree steps up to the podium for their remarks, we are always left feeling inspired and grateful for their impact on the community,” said Chamber President Tim Sink. At the 2023 award ceremony, Alex Stoyle spoke on behalf of Revelstoke Coffee, which received the Small Business of the Year award. “We pride ourselves on being 49% coffee and 51% Concord community. That’s our true focus at the end of the day. And when we think about the growth of the business, we have looked at a lot of other places, and we always are reminded that we did this for Concord more than we did it for coffee.”
The Chamber encourages professionals and community members throughout the region to celebrate these award recipients at the 19th Annual Pinnacle Awards Luncheon on Thursday, June 6 at the Grappone Conference Center. This event is generously sponsored by Eastern Bank, Eversource Energy, and Business NH Magazine. Learn more and register at concordnhchamber.com.
