Most-loved local businesses

A local yoga studio, a farm-to-table diner and a boat detailer are among the most popular small businesses in the Okanagan.

L'Oven, The Hot Box Yoga and Scrub Captain are among 15 businesses that on Tuesday won Valley First Credit Union’s 2017 Fan Choice Awards.

The competition invited community members to show their support for their favourite local and independent small businesses, by voting for them on the credit union’s social media outlets.

According to Valley First, social-media-savvy fans cast more than 850 votes over the month-long voting period, with top spots going to the local and independent small businesses that received the most love from loyal community members and supporters.

“We were overwhelmed by the number of votes we saw in this year’s Fan Choice Awards,” said Marek Buryska, a regional manager with Valley First. “It was gratifying to see so many community members advocate passionately on behalf of their favourite local businesses.”
