Best of Business Awards honor more than 50 B2B companies across NH

MANCHESTER – NH Business Review will celebrate more than 50 businesses throughout the Granite State during its annual Best of Business (BOB) Awards party on Thursday, March 12, from 5:30 to 8 p.m. at the Grappone Conference Center in Concord.

This year’s BOB Awards Party will spotlight the Granite State’s business heroes with an immersive, superhero‑themed experience. The event will feature interactive challenges, gourmet food stations, refreshing beverages and a themed photo booth. Guests are encouraged to attend in superhero‑inspired attire, such as bold colors, capes, masks or subtle nods to their favorite comic‑book icons. Tickets for the event can be purchased for $71 per person at www.nhbr.com/events-awards/best-of-business-awards.

“Each year, the Best of Business Awards give us an incredible opportunity to recognize the companies that consistently raise the bar for excellence in New Hampshire,” said Mike Cote, editor, NH Business Review. “We’re looking forward to bringing the business community together for a fun, high-energy celebration at the BOB Awards Party—an event that not only highlights these outstanding organizations, but also honors the spirit of collaboration and creativity that makes New Hampshire’s business landscape so dynamic.”

NH Business Review readers have been casting votes to give their favorite local businesses the recognition they deserve since 2008. Determined through an online readers' poll, the BOB Awards distinguish the companies that go above and beyond to offer the best service in more than 50 categories, including “Best Public Golf Course,” “Best Auto Luxury Dealership,” “Best Hotel for Business Travel” and “Best Investment Firm.”
