St. George Chamber of Commerce Celebrates Local Business Excellence at Annual Gala

The St. George Chamber of Commerce recently hosted its annual gala, a prestigious event dedicated to recognizing the exceptional achievements of local businesses that have significantly contributed to the community's prosperity.

 

Among the honorees was Orange Leaf, a beloved frozen yogurt establishment that has become a community favorite since its grand opening in January 2026. The shop has provided a welcoming space for families and friends to gather and enjoy customizable frozen treats.

 

Another notable awardee was Big-D Construction, acknowledged for their completion of the new St. George City Hall. This $51.5 million project, finalized in January 2026, has provided modern facilities to accommodate the city's rapid growth and enhance civic engagement.

 

The gala also celebrated the arrival of new businesses that have enriched the local economy. Sprouts Farmers Market opened its doors in August 2024, offering residents access to a wide selection of natural and organic foods. Additionally, Hot Dog on a Stick launched a new location in January 2025, bringing its iconic menu to the Red Cliffs Mall.

 

These developments reflect St. George's dynamic economic landscape. In April 2025, the city was named the No. 1 Best Small City to Start a Business by WalletHub, underscoring its supportive environment for entrepreneurs and thriving local economy.

 

The Chamber's gala not only honored these businesses but also highlighted the collaborative spirit that drives St. George's growth. As the city continues to attract new ventures and investments, the community remains committed to fostering innovation and celebrating the successes that contribute to its vibrant future.
