St. Charles Business Alliance extends Made in St. Charles nomination deadline

The St. Charles Business Alliance is extending the nomination deadline for the Made in St. Charles recognitions to Wednesday, Aug. 14.

Businesses may be nominated or submit self-nominations to the program. Nominations can be filled out online at https://www.stcalliance.org/makersnomination and applications can be sent to Nate Wendt at nwendt@stcalliance.org.

To be eligible, businesses must have a brick-and-mortar location open to the public with a physical address in St. Charles and must make their crafts and products in St. Charles.

Examples of businesses eligible to receive Made in St. Charles recognitions include beauty and wellness, crafters, food and beverage artisans and woodworking and metal sculptors.

The St. Charles Business Alliance’s Business Development and Sales Committee launched the program in the summer of 2022 and it is run by St. Charles Business Alliance volunteers.

Each year since its inception, six local businesses have been recognized for the products they create in St. Charles. Previous recipients can be found on the Alliance’s Made in St. Charles webpage.
