The South Dakota Retailers Association is now accepting nominations for its annual statewide business awards.
Each year, the organization hands out awards for retailer of the year, restaurant of the year, and community service.
"We believe in South Dakota businesses," said Exec. Dir. Nathan Sanderson. "These awards are our way of giving back and recognizing those who make our state a great place to live, work, and raise a family."
Nominations are open through Sept. 1. Anyone interested in nominating a business can do so on the retailers association's website.
Winners will be announced in January at the association’s statewide Business Conference and Awards Reception in Pierre.
