The SBA Utah District Office Announces Small Business Award Winners
This year marks 59 years of America celebrating the success of small businesses during National Small Business Week. Since the first National Small Business Week held by the U.S. Small Business Administration in 1963, our nation’s businesses have dealt with
a myriad of economically impacting issues resulting from wars, fear of a Y2K collapse, technological evolution, and now a global pandemic. Through all of it, entrepreneurs have pushed forward and come up with creative new ways to conduct business and grow
our economy. Utah entrepreneurs are delivering services and products that make the state’s cities, towns, and rural communities great places to live and work.
“I am particularly pleased this year to congratulate our 2022 Small Business award winners. These businesses are reflective of what entrepreneurial success looks like in Utah,” said Marla Trollan, Utah SBA District Director. “I know there are many great businesses
in our state that have worked extremely hard to get to where they are, and we are here to honor a few of those that have stood out among their peers. There are currently over 313,000 small businesses in Utah, and so these few that we recognize this year with
a coveted National Small Business Week award should be proud.”
