BBB Midwest Plains: 2025 Torch Award and Spark Award winners

The Better Business Bureau (BBB) of the Midwest Plains is proud to announce the winners of the 2025 BBB Torch Awards for Ethics and BBB Spark Awards — the organization’s highest honors recognizing integrity and excellence in the marketplace.

All local recipients will now advance to the next stage for consideration in the International Torch Awards for Ethics.

Award applications were reviewed by an independent panel of industry leaders, including past Torch Award recipients. There is no cost to apply or win, and eligibility is open to all businesses and nonprofits in good standing with BBB — Accreditation is not required.

Winners will be celebrated at the 2025 BBB Torch Awards Luncheon on Wednesday, September 24, 2025. Tickets and sponsorships are available at BBB.org/omahatorch.

Entries were judged by employee size and within five regional categories:

• Omaha & Southwest Iowa
• Lincoln & Greater Nebraska
