AUGUSTA — The Maine Department of Economic and Community Development is now accepting nominations for the 2013 Governor’s Award for Business Excellence.

“The Governor’s Award for Business Excellence showcases business innovation and spirit that has earned Maine a reputation for topquality workmanship, service and a commitment to excellence,” DECD Commissioner George Gervais said in a news release. “We encourage all of Maine’s for-profit businesses to get involved.”

Companies that have been in business in Maine for five or more years may be nominated or may nominate themselves. DECD encourages businesses of all sizes to apply.
