Six gubernatorial disaster proclamations.
Nine executive orders. 

29,230 vaccine doses. 
From January to June 2021—the voting period for our Best of Naperville reader poll—northeast Illinois was an arduous and dynamic region to run a business in. Retailers and restaurants had to shift procedures constantly, while professional services carried on, working in new and virtual ways. Although the construction and real estate industries were booming, material shortages and low inventory drove prices up. We applaud both winners and finalists for earning—or holding onto—a solid reputation under these circumstances.
