This is the sixth year for the contest organized by the North Carolina Chamber.
For the first time, the contest will recognize three winners this year, one for businesses with fewer than 100 employees, one for businesses with between 100 and 999 employees, as well as one for businesses with over 1,000 employees.
“North Carolina is home to some of the most creative and cutting-edge manufacturers in the world,” NC Chamber President and CEO Gary J. Salamido said in a statement. “The ‘Coolest Thing Made in NC’ contest is a fun way to celebrate the people and products that make our state unique. Every nomination tells a story of innovation, pride, and possibility—and helps highlight the meaningful career opportunities this industry offers to students, veterans, and adult learners across North Carolina.”
The public can nominate any product, as long as it’s made in North Carolina.
The N.C. Chamber will announce the nominees on Aug. 21. All are invited to submit their nominations by Aug. 13.
