Inc. powered by MAXIFY Printers, announced the finalists for their first-ever[Forbes Main Street Awards](https://mainstreetawards.forbes.com/voting.php), where five winners will be featured on Forbes.com, as well as in *Forbes* magazine at the end of 2017.  College Hill Custom Threads has been named one of the top 15 finalists and is nominated in the category of Best Brick-and-Mortar Adoption of E-Commerce.   From small-town storefronts to pioneering new start-ups, the Forbes Main Street Awards are designed to champion the positive impact of small businesses leading the way by taking big steps for both their businesses and their communities. College Hill first opened its doors in a one bedroom apartment atop a local bar in Pullman, Washington. While they got their start taking handwritten sticky note orders from their classmates, they have spent the past six years building a largely digital enterprise. On over 360 campuses nationwide and breaking into the corporate world of custom apparel and products, College Hill has become a thriving online business.
