Downtown Maple Ridge Business Awards Nominations

dmrbia logoThe community came out in droves to vote for their favourite Downtown Maple Ridge businesses, and the results are in!
When the poll closed on Wednesday April 15th, voters had cast votes for their favourite businesses in 32 categories.

We are very excited to hand out the first place awards in each category at our AGM.

We hope everyone enjoyed taking the poll, and maybe even discovered some businesses or services through it!
With over 700 businesses, there's something for everyone in Downtown Maple Ridge.

Each winner will receive a personalized, commemorative plaque recognizing their achievements, presented to them at the Downtown Maple Ridge Business Improvement Association's Annual General Meeting on Monday May 7th.
We would love to see all the finalists, and other business members, in attendance to cheer on their fellow business owners.
