The Saipan Chamber of Commerce awarded Tan Holdings Vice President for Business Development Ivan Quichocho as 2017’s Businessperson of the Year.
After declining his past four nominations, the Chamber made the surprise announcement at the Business Person of the Year Gala last January 27 at the Hibiscus Hall of the Fiesta Resort and Spa Saipan.
Acknowledging the rapid growth of global competition, Quichocho believes that to continue CNMI’s economic growth, tighter unity and faster operations would be effective measures to maintain the community’s current market share.
The Business Person of the Year Gala, formerly known as the Chamber’s Installation Dinner, is the organization’s signature fundraising event.
