Vote Now to celebrate Long Island small businesses!
Small businesses drive our economy and enrich our communities. That’s why PSEG Long Island and Long Island Press are partnering to bring you Small Business Stars. This is a monthly feature in print, online, and on social media that celebrates the achievements of small businesses across Long Island and The Rockaways. Each month, we’ll highlight two businesses that have demonstrated a commitment to innovation, social responsibility, and energy efficiency in their operations.
April Nominees
For April, the focus is on Earth Month and Clean Energy. Here are the two nominees:
- Imperial Cleaning, Amityville

These two businesses have embraced clean energy, contributing to a more sustainable future. Each organization has created spaces and services that incorporate energy-efficient practices while offering top-notch services to the community. Their participation in PSEG Long Island’s Business First Program has provided valuable opportunities to grow and give back to their communities.
