ABBIES Award Recipients

The prestigious ABBIE Awards were proposed in 1987 by the Small Business Council of the Arlington Chamber of Commerce to celebrate the best of Arlington's small businesses. The first award was presented in the spring of 1987. Award recipients are chosen by a Chamber selection committee that usually consists of the Chamber Chairman and several previous ABBIE winners. The ABBIES awards are presented to those businesses that consistently provide outstanding quality of service and products, have achieved significant growth or stability over the lifetime of their business and display industry leadership. All ABBIES winners focus on giving back to the community and making Arlington a better place to live and work. Therefore, environmentally friendly businesses are also honored at the ABBIES. The Arlington Chamber and the EDC established the “Green ABBIE” in 2001 to assist and encourage businesses to protect our environment and reduce energy needs.
