2022 Business Leaders of the Year

Mainebiz is happy to present the 2022 class of Business Leaders of the Year.

This year’s crew comes from an array of industries — housing, social services, hospitality, food production and manufacturing-retail.

We think you’ll find that the five Business Leaders of the Year demonstrate vision and a determination to get things done. They’re certainly torchbearers for Maine.

Mainebiz invites you to congratulate and thank these leaders for their contributions to our economy, our state and our daily lives. Please join us at an awards reception on Wednesday, April 6. Click here for details.
