Readers’ Choice Awards recognizes excellence, promotes shopping local Written By DAVID SINGLETON Washington Daily News

S

hop Local. It’s something you hear or read about all the time. We all know it’s good for the local economy, and that business you do in your community is multiplied by those whom you do business with. The result is that the entire community benefits.

That’s the idea behind Readers’ Choice — where the citizens of Washington and Beaufort County take a little time out of their busy days to register their favorites in areas such as Shopping, Food and Beverage, Services and the like. It’s a source of pride for local area businesses and a great marketing vehicle for winners to grow their clientele. The Readers’ Choice Awards also recognize excellence in areas such Education and Professionals to highlight personal achievements in an inclusive array of categories.

Putting Readers’ Choice together has become an annual event for the Washington Daily News, and we’re excited to reveal this year’s winners and runners-up. We’d like to thank the local businesses who use their resources to help promote the cause and especially our Presenting Sponsors, without whom we could not make this annual tradition a reality.

Presenting sponsor Big Bargain Furniture has literally been a household name since 1961. Founded by “Mr. Billy” Jefferson, Big Bargain Furniture has been a Main Street mainstay for more

than 58 years and provides to Washington, Beaufort County and surrounding areas quality furniture, “white-glove” service and a unparalleled record of customer satisfaction. Their extensive collection of furniture lines built in North Carolina and Tennessee keep quality crafted furniture in homes throughout the region, while keeping that quality furniture sourced as locally as possible.

There’s not a more iconic eatery in Beaufort County than King Chicken, also a Presenting Sponsor for 2020. The King Chicken Drive-in is known far and wide for the best fried chicken, cheese biscuits and fixins in the whole Pamlico region — and known just as well for their famous “service with a smile.” The original owner, Granville Lilley, opened the business in 1958, and he and his son, Stancil, operated the popular southern food destination for 60 years. Then in 2018, local businessman Zack Mixon took the reins, keeping the great traditions alive while expanding the menu and adding modern-day services.

Thanks to King Chicken and Big Bargain Furniture for their sponsorship and support; and thank you for participating in the survey. Enjoy discovering this year’s winners, and remember that keeping the focus on shopping local keeps Beaufort County strong!
