Utah businesses Bucking the Trends
Two favorite food-related business in Utah will be honored Jan. 29 by the Salt Lake Chamber.

The Mandarin Restaurant, in Bountiful, has been named the "Small Business of the Year." while Manuel's Fine Foods will receive the "Minority Small Business" award.
Founded by Gregory and Jeni Skedros more than 30 years ago, the Mandarin has become a favorite place for Chinese food in Utah.

Manuel Torres opened Manuel’s Fine Foods in 1938. Today the operation is run by three of his grandsons.

Award recipients were selected for “Bucking the Trends and Reining in a Wild Economy,” said Chamber President Lane Beattie.
