Lafayette, Indiana – April 19, 2022 – Ahead of National Small Business Week, the U.S. Small Business Administration has announced this year’s Small Business Person of the Year winners – over 50 outstanding small business owners and entrepreneurs from across the United States, including the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico.
Donte Wilburn, the owner of Premier Auto Detailing & Wash, has been selected as Indiana’s Small Business Person of the Year for 2022. The National Small Business Week Virtual Summit, “Building a Better America Through Entrepreneurship,” will be held May 2-5.
“From winning the Entrepreneur of the Year to meeting with the Governor and now to winning the National Small Business Person of the Year for Indiana, I’ve never forgotten that this accomplishment is the byproduct of having such an amazing support system! I couldn’t have done it without my family, employees, partners, managers, mentors, and those that gave me a chance. No one achieves anything alone! You all are terrific!” said Donte.
Each year, the SBA celebrates National Small Business Week by recognizing the achievements of outstanding small business owners and entrepreneurs across the United States. All NSBW winners will be recognized during a virtual event on May 5, 2022.
