The spotlight’s back on local businesses as the much-loved Best of Cloverdale contest makes its 2025 return on August 1. Hosted by the Cloverdale Reporter, this annual celebration is now in its ninth year—inviting the community to vote for the people, places, and small businesses that help make Cloverdale one-of-a-kind.
From cozy cafés to trusted service providers, there are over 80 categories open for nominations. Whether it’s your go-to brunch spot, the florist who gets every bouquet just right, or a friendly face at your neighbourhood pharmacy—your vote gives them the recognition they deserve.
But the contest goes beyond just awards. It’s about honouring the soul of Cloverdale—the hardworking entrepreneurs, creative minds, and everyday legends who help this town thrive. Your input helps shine a spotlight on what makes our community feel like home.
Voting is open to everyone who loves Cloverdale and its businesses. Submissions begin August 1 and close at midnight on September 5. And here’s the cherry on top: every completed entry automatically enters you into a draw to win a $250 Save-On-Foods gift card.
Local business owners are encouraged to spread the word—more votes could mean more visibility, more love, and a well-deserved win. Don’t miss this chance to celebrate excellence across Cloverdale.
