HOUSTON … Houston Food Bank has been recognized by the Better Business Bureau of Greater Houston and South Texas with a 2025 BBB Award for Excellence, honoring businesses that demonstrate superior commitment to ethics, integrity and trust in the marketplace.
Houston Food Bank was recognized in the category of Large Non-Profit Organization with a Pinnacle award, which highlights companies that have excelled in customer service, performance and marketplace trust.
The BBB Awards for Excellence recognize businesses and charities that maintain a solid commitment to ethical business practices, building consumer confidence, and supporting the community. This year’s event was held at the Bayou City Event Center and celebrated outstanding organizations from across the region.
