Vermont Business Magazine, along with the US Small Business Administration (SBA), has named Steve Gagner from 14th Star Brewing as Small Business Person of the Year. This award will be presented at the 2019 SBA Awards on June 13th at the Country Club of Vermont in Waterbury.
There are several other distinguished awards given out at this ceremony, including Exporter of the Year, Woman-Owned Business of the Year, Family-Owned Business of the Year, Minority-Owned Business of the Year, Microenterprise of the Year, and Young Entrepreneur of the Year.
Steve Gagner conceptualized his St. Albans-based business while on tour in Afghanistan, and describes 14th Star as “a veteran-owned Vermont craft brewery on a mission to brew world-class beer while enriching our community.” 14th Star Brewing has the unique distinction of being SRH Law’ 1000th client, to whom we continue to provide trademark and intellectual property services.
