Cloverdale company is a BBB Torch Awards nominee

BC Plant Health Care Inc. is a 'People's Pick' in the 2016 awards

The accolades are stacking up for a Cloverdale company.

In April, BC Plant Health Care Inc. was awarded a Clovies Award for Green Business of the Year in recognition of environmental stewardship and sustainability practices.

The company is an aboriculture business that performs everything from planting, pruning, tree removal and stump grinding to soil management and pest control.

And now it’s been chosen as a “People’s Pick” nominee in the Better Business Bureau of B.C.’s 2016 Torch Awards.

The finalists were announced last Monday.

Judges whittled down dozens of entrants to select a few finalists for six award categories, ranging from marketplace excellence and innovative business practices to employer of the year.

The awards recognize hard work and commitment of nominees to create an ethical marketplace. Judges are selected from a cross section of businesses and the academic community using standards set out by the Council of Better Business Bureaus.

BC Plant Health Care Inc. is one of 12 finalists in the People’s Pick category. Voting ended Monday, and the awards will be announced June 16.
