In South Lake, great businesses aren’t just places to shop — they’re neighbors, supporters, sponsors, problem-solvers, and community champions. And each year, the South Lake Chamber of Commerce gives residents a chance to cheer them on in a big way.

The Annual South Lake Business Awards hosted by the South Lake Chamber of Commerce, celebrates outstanding local businesses across a variety of categories. Winners are chosen through public voting, giving the community a direct voice in recognizing the companies that make a difference in everyday life. The honorees are recognized at a festive awards gala, where business leaders, community members, and supporters gather to celebrate success and service.

From hometown restaurants and retail shops to professional services and community-minded organizations, the ballot is always filled with deserving names.

The South Lake Tablet is privileged to be nomined and, of course, we are honored. However, here at The South Lake Tablet, we’ll let you in on a little secret — choosing just one “best” business in any category feels nearly impossible. South Lake is filled with hardworking businesses that go above and beyond all year long. Still, the annual awards banquet offers a special opportunity to spotlight individual businesses and recognize their dedication, innovation, and community spirit.

Win or not, being nominated alone is a strong sign that a business has earned the trust and appreciation of its customers — and that’s something worth celebrating.

In South Lake, when local businesses shine, the whole community glows a little brighter.

CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL OUR BUSINESSES!
