The United States Chamber of Commerce released its list of the top 100 small businesses in the country on Thursday, recognizing entrepreneurs from across the nation.
The “CO–100,” as the list is known, is not ranked, and represents the finalists out of 14,000 applicants, which will be winnowed down to a top 10, and a single overall winner will be crowned next month.

“Small businesses embody the resilience and ingenuity that define America’s free enterprise system, yet they often go unrecognized,” Vice President and Editor-in-Chief of CO Jeanette Mulvey told FOX Business in a statement.
“As the world’s largest business organization and network representing companies of all sizes and industries, we understand what makes a business great.”

This year’s list, as always, spans across several industries, too, from microbreweries like Holidaily Brewing Company in Golden, Colorado, to aerospace suppliers such as 2Lyons Aerospace in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. There are also health care startups, fisheries, florists, and an array of retailers that made the cut.
