Business of the Year Award
The Chamber's Business of the Year Award is intended to recognize the achievements of San Marcos area companies who have displayed strong financial performance, achievement in management, workplace excellence, innovation and community and social responsibility. Each past honored company has harbored a strong commitment to delivering quality products and services in their respective industries.
The Small Business Council considered a number of criteria for the selection. Those criteria included active community participation, longevity in the community, the reputation of fair dealing and ethical behavior in business dealings, and a demonstrated commitment to the long-term economic growth of San Marcos.
This Year's Business of the Year Award Winner:
Central Texas Medical Center (CTMC) employs 610 staff and 177 physicians, and just reached a landmark 25 years of service in the San Marcos Community. CTMC provides millions of dollars each year in community benefit and involvement that improves and enhances the overall health and well-being of our community in many ways. They care for the underprivileged, who often cannot pay for their care. They care for the elderly by subsidizing their un-reimbursed Medicare costs. They provide faith-based and spiritual support for families and the community. Their Blood Bank is recognized for its unparalleled success which allows local patients the security of having a steady blood supply. And the list goes on and on.
In 2008, they announced a $30 million dollar expansion that will bring first class OB/GYN care to our citizens (click here to learn more). We are grateful for their continued investment in and support of San Marcos.
