Welcome to the 2024 Manistee News Advocate’s Readers’ Choice Awards!
As you can already see, we’ve made some changes. We wanted to give you a publication that is truly special and reflects the character of the community. We hope you like it! We had another year of very high voter turnout with the great people of the Manistee community voting for the businesses and professionals they love the most. This resulted in an extremely competitive year. The winning businesses listed in these pages are truly the best of the best. It is our privilege to be able to honor them and recognize the services they provide.
But before we get to the winners, The Manistee News Advocate wants to give a HUGE thank you to all of our readers. Simply put, without you this magazine would not be possible. Your continued support, and the time you invested in voting for your favorite businesses and people in each category, is appreciated. Our local businesses take a lot of pride in serving you and they appreciate your vote of confidence!
This magazine goes far beyond listing winners and finalists,
however. It also serves as a resource for our community to help you discover the best places to eat, the top doctors and medical facilities to use and the outstanding professionals who provide services in the Manistee area. You can use this magazine all year long, with confidence, knowing that people just like you have endorsed these local businesses.
To all the winners and finalists, on behalf of the Manistee News Advocate and our readers, I’d like to extend a very warm and hearty CONGRATULATIONS! Thank you for helping make Manistee such a special community to do business in.
We hope you enjoy the 2024 Reader’s Choice Awards!
