The Greater Haverhill Chamber hosted the 30th annual Business Awards Breakfast on Feb. 12.
The chamber’s awards ceremony highlights exceptional business achievements, noteworthy community contributions and exceptional performance across a variety of industries. This year’s event also reflects the extraordinary circumstances of 2020, recognizing businesses that stood out with creative, clever and sometimes critical solutions during the global pandemic.
Chief among this year’s awards recipients, Holy Family Hospital was named the chamber’s Business of the Year. The hospital received this recognition after serving on the front lines in the fight against COVID-19 while continuing to maintain high standards and provide outstanding health care services to the community.
