The “Distinguished Entrepreneur of the Year” is a business owner who demonstrates “innovative and cutting edge approaches to corporate culture, employee programs, and integrated new technologies.”
Florida Small Business Development Center (FSBDC) at Florida Gulf Coast University (FGCU) announced the winners of the 2021 Distinguished Entrepreneur of Southwest Florida Awards during a live-streamed virtual awards ceremony on Tuesday, May 4, 2021.
Bill Daubmann, 20-21 Distinguished Entrepreneur of SW Florida Award winner is the president of My Shower Door and D3 Glass. In September 2003, the Daubmann family opened their first frameless shower door showroom in Southwest Florida.
Since then, MY Shower Door has grown to 109 employees. MY Shower Door is the only provider of Frameless Glass Shower enclosures to manufacture, design, install, and warranty their proprietary products. With nine locations through Florida, and new store locations expected in 2021, My Shower Door is poised to be an industry leader. For the last nine consecutive years, readers of the Naples Daily News and The News-Press voted My Shower Door as “the best place to purchase shower doors.”
