PETERBOROUGH:  The 2016 Business Excellence Awards, sponsored by Bell, were handed out at the awards ceremony at The Trentwinds on October 19th.  The 13th annual ceremony was presented by the Greater Peterborough Chamber of Commerce, and is designed to publicly recognize and honour local businesses who have demonstrated a passion for excellence.

In all, 54 businesses and individuals were profiled as “Finalists”, with recipients announced live in each of the 21 categories, including the 4-Under-40 Profiles and the Student Business Leadership Bursaries.

The Peterborough Chamber of Commerce also announced its annual Business Citizen of the Year recipient at the awards ceremony. As the Chamber of Commerce is a Business-to-Business organization, the role that a nominee for the Business Citizen of the Year Award has had in the Business Community is extremely important. The Chamber of Commerce also recognizes the importance of volunteerism within the broader community. The 2016 recipient is Stephen Kylie!  Stephen joins a long list of Business Citizens of the Year, who have all made a significant contribution to the community.

The Greater Peterborough Chamber of Commerce is a member-based organization. Our main focus is to channel the collective strength of the business community to improve the economy.

If we would like to send a "congrats" letter to all recipient where would I find everyone's information. I found the first one but could not find Carolina's Colombia address or contact person. Let me know if you can help me out.
