I love this initiative from the city, as a worthy investment of Bucyrus Foundation funds. Small businesses are the backbone of our city, and the city understands that.

At last night’s Common Council meeting, the 2024 Bucyrus Business Awards and Bucyrus Business Retention Grants were presented. Congratulations to Better Together Cafe for winning Bucyrus Business of the Year and Bakehouse 23 mke for being recognized as the Bucyrus New Business of the Year! 
Azteca Restaurant MKE, Moran’s Pub, ChowChow Treats And Bakery, and The Chi Shed, LLC also received well-deserved honorable mention awards.
Awards were presented based on a public nomination and voting process that took place earlier this year. Over 1,100 ballots were cast to determine the winners.
Bucyrus Business Retention Grants were also awarded to the Golden Lion, Sorce Martial Arts, and Gray’s, Inc. These grants were distributed via random drawing from our 2024 business anniversaries list.
Our thanks to the Bucyrus Foundation for fully funding the awards and the grants distributed to our businesses. Economic Development Month and last night’s presentation are part of the S.M.ALL Business Program. The program’s goal is to recognize our businesses and encourage them to stay and grow in South Milwaukee.
