Annual Awards Luncheon Nominations

The Willoughby Western Lake County Chamber of Commerce, the 2025 Outstanding Chamber of the Year, will give five awards in the categories of Small Business/Organization, Large Business/Organization, Showcase Award and Best Customer Service Award. The 5th award is solely based on nominations from the WWLCC Board of Directors for the Chamber of Commerce Community Impact Award.

We are looking for candidates who go above and beyond what is required in the areas of accomplishments and involvement. How to qualify for an award:

• Small Business/Organization of the Year: Under 50 employees.
• Large Business/Organization of the Year: Over 50 employees.
• Showcase Award: Recognizes a business whose property has been a “showcase” for Western Lake County through landscaping, green initiatives, or beautification of the interior and/or exterior of their facility.
• Outstanding Customer Service Award: An organization that draws customers back again and again with its exceptional customer service (nominations will compete in an online poll)

Only members of the Willoughby Western Lake County Chamber of Commerce will be considered for the Distinguished Annual Awards; however, nominators do not need to be members.
