Valerie Wilson Travel Wins 2018 Family Business Award

Valerie, Jennifer, Kimberly are excited to announce Valerie Wilson Travel as a Crain Custom’s Honoree for their Inaugural Family Business Awards. This award celebrates some of New York City’s most entrepreneurial, historic and charitable family owned businesses.

Crain’s Custom, a division of Crain’s New York Business, honors trailblazing family owned businesses that have established a path of success in their industries. These family owned businesses have paved the way for their families, worked together to overcome challenges as well as change business markets, and have a tradition of giving back to the community.

The honorees were selected based on the following criteria: must work or own a business in the greater New York City metropolitan area for a minimum of 5 years; have at least $2 million in revenue per year; employ at least two-family members; and headquarter in the NYC metropolitan area. Finalists and honorees were selected by Crain’s Custom judging panel which is independent of the Crain’s New York Business newsroom.

We are so thrilled to share this exciting news with all of you!
