Bronx Chamber of Commerce holds Business Awards Gala by Del Greco

Nunzio Del Greco, Bronx Chamber of Commerce

Raising the bar and taking the Bronx Chamber of Commerce to new heights is my personal mission and passion. Last week in my article, I discussed and highlighted the first annual Bronx Business Directory & Resource Guide. I was also interviewed by News 12 Cablevision. The interview was great and the response has been amazing! I expect the 2018 edition to be 2 or 3 times larger in the number of pages, advertisers and members. To view the 2017 Bronx Business Directory & Resource Guide visit: www.BronxChamber.org.

As I mentioned, the directory will be updated each month listing new businesses alphabetically and by category with an addendum inserted in the glossy publication. New businesses are encouraged to join now and take advantage of stimulating their business by networking and generating referral business from the Bronx Business Directory & Resource Guide.

Rebranding the Bronx Chamber of Commerce

In my quest of rebranding the Bronx Chamber of Commerce, the theme of the annual gala will be consistent going forward and is now titled: Bronx Business Awards 2017 Gala Celebration. For future events, only the year will change annually. Members and friends of the Bronx Chamber of Commerce were encouraged to nominate companies to be honored at the gala for the first time. The response was overwhelming. Multiple nominations were received for each award category. The events committee had a difficult time selecting only 1 candidate for each award category. I think it’s a wonderful problem to have created and it is an excellent source of award recipients for our many other events such as the Heritage Luncheons.
