Chihuahua business awards program

Overview

In late July 2026, the Chihuahua state government, through its Secretary of Innovation and Economic Development, presented the Distintivo Chihuahua Market badge to 37 micro, small and medium enterprises across the state. The award highlighted quality standards and aimed to improve competitiveness, local consumption and market access through training, financing, fairs and partnerships.

A week later, the Cámara Nacional de Comercio marked the annual Merchant Day by honoring roughly 100 local merchants for long‑term dedication to the regional economy. The ceremony, attended by state officials, underscored the importance of a vibrant commercial sector in generating jobs and supporting families. Together, the events illustrate an ongoing, coordinated effort by state authorities and the business community to recognize and promote Chihuahua’s small‑business ecosystem.
