Congratulations to the 2022 Best of Alaska Business awards winners! Throughout the month of March our readers voted to let us know their favorite businesses in thirty-four categories, ranging from Best General Contractor to Best International Cuisine. Our survey doesn’t have auto-populate or drop-down menus, so every reader that voted knows, without prompting or suggestions, who the top performers are. You can see all the winners below.
While you’re perusing the page, make sure to get to know Sarah Glaser, our exceptional artistic partner for 2022. She is the talent behind the cover this year—but art is just one of her talents. Learn more about her in Off the Cuff and Off the Cuff: Behind the Scenes.
Editor’s Pick: Best Corporate Citizen
Frequently Asked Questions
How do you choose the categories?
Each year, the Alaska Business editorial and management teams evaluate our list of categories for the survey. We consider current business and industry trends and the prior year’s data to refine the category list. We may add a new category if an exciting new business or trend comes to our attention or we may eliminate a category that is no longer applicable to you, our readers. We always take into account your feedback and we always appreciate hearing about categories you’d like to see added or nixed.
The readers’ choice survey is managed by our editorial department and is completely separate from advertising. The readers’ choice survey has no relationship with or effect on advertising, and vice versa.
Can a business or organization be a finalist if it’s located outside of the magazine’s coverage area?
In order to qualify as a finalist in the survey, the business or organization must have a physical presence within Alaska.
When will the winners be announced?
On July 1 you’ll be able to find the 2022 winners in our digital and print editions and on our website.
For now, you can see the full list and writeups of our 2021 winners in the Best of Alaska Business Special Section in our July print and digital editions; you can also find them on our lists page.
