I am proud to have acknowledged these business leaders for their hard work not only to strengthen their own businesses but our entire borough as well,” said Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr.

We are glad to honor these businesses. The BOEDC has been providing great assistance and financial support to our local businesses.
