The Delaware State Chamber of Commerce and its Small Business Alliance are looking for exceptional companies to apply for the 2018  Marvin S. Gilman Superstars in Business  awards.

The program is celebrating its 20th anniversary.

Being a “Superstar” award winner has helped us grow our business and achieve our business objectives. Plus, the publicity that comes along with being a winner has tremendous value, both internally and externally. I would encourage all businesses to try to earn this recognition,” stated  Mike Uffner,  CEO, AutoTeam Delaware, 2003 Superstar in Business.

The Delaware State Chamber of Commerce launched the Marvin S. Gilman Superstars in Business Awards program in 1998 to recognize small businesses and nonprofit organizations in Delaware.

The application process, along with additional details, can be found at www.dscc.com/superstarsinbusiness.  Winners are judged in three categories based on number of employees, and a nonprofit category.
