August 27, 2004

NH Business Review Staff,

CONCORD- The Better Business Bureau that serves New Hampshire is taking nominations and applications for the 2004 Better Business Bureau Torch Award for Marketplace Ethics until Friday, Sept. 10.

Three categories of companies will be recognized: one large company of 51 employees or more, one medium company of between 11 and 50 employees and one small company with between 1 and 10 employees. Companies do not need to have a formal ethics program nor be a BBB member to enter the competition.

Non-profit organizations or businesses whose primary markets are local, state or federal governments are not eligible for this award.

Award entry forms are available by calling 224-1991 or by writing to the bureau at 410 S. Main St., Concord, 03301, or by e-mailing requests to info@bbbnh.org.
