Georgia rock stars wanted
The Georgia Department of Economic Development (GDEcD) and the Georgia Economic Developers Association (GEDA) are once again looking for Small Business ROCK STARS, the state’s brightest companies employing fewer than 100. Nominations are now open for all types of small businesses to apply, from retail and service companies to manufacturers. Deadline for applications is Sept. 30, 2019.
For the seventh year, GDEcD and GEDA are teaming up to recognize unique, outstanding and impactful small businesses. Winners will be honored at an awards luncheon at the Georgia Aquarium on April 20, 2020, and will have opportunities for free marketing exposure.
Since the Georgia Small Business ROCK STARS program was launched, it has received more than 750 nominations and honored 29 small businesses. The 2019 ROCK STARS are:
- ASW Distillery (Atlanta – Fulton County)
- InPrime Legal (Marietta – Cobb County)
- Oyster Fine Bamboo Fly Rods (Blue Ridge – Fannin County)
- Southern Fiber Worx (Cordele – Crisp County)
