Because Locals Know Best
Shore Local is shining a spotlight on the people, businesses and organizations that you love with the launch of its Locals Choice Awards.
Nominations are now open, giving readers the opportunity to recognize the places and professionals that make a lasting impact across Atlantic and Cape May counties.
The Locals Choice Awards are designed to celebrate the best of the region, from dining and shopping to wellness, entertainment and professional services. The program highlights both longtime local staples and emerging businesses, reflecting the diversity and strength of the shore’s business community.
The nomination phase marks the first step in the process and plays a critical role in shaping the final ballot. Community members are encouraged to submit nominations for their favorite businesses, organizations and individuals across a wide range of categories.
Nominees will advance to the voting round. During this phase, readers will have the opportunity to vote for their favorites. The top five in each category will advance to the final round of voting, ultimately determining the Locals Choice Winners.
Final results will be published in a special Shore Local Magazine and additionally featured across the publication’s digital platforms.
As a locally owned publication, Shore Local has built its identity around covering the people, places and events that shape life along the shore. The Locals Choice Awards extend that mission by providing a platform for direct community participation and recognition.
The awards also serve as an important opportunity for local businesses to gain visibility. Recognition through nominations and votes can help strengthen a business’s reputation, introduce it to new customers and reinforce its role within the community.
Residents and visitors alike are encouraged to think about the businesses they rely on most — from favorite restaurants and coffee spots to trusted service providers and local attractions. Every nomination contributes to building a comprehensive picture of what makes the region unique.
Nominations are open through April 21 and can be submitted online. Participants may nominate in multiple categories, helping ensure a wide range of businesses and services are represented.
Community members are encouraged to take part and share the nomination link with friends, family and colleagues to help highlight the best the shore has to offer.
