  Mr. HUDSON. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor and congratulate 
Tastebuds Popcorn Concord for receiving the Cabarrus Regional Chamber 
of Commerce New Business of the Year Award.
  Tastebuds Popcorn Concord has quickly become a local favorite. In 
just over a year, they have established themselves as a popular vendor 
of over 200 flavors of popcorn and gone above and beyond to provide 
invaluable support to our community.
  Tastebuds Popcorn Concord is a veteran-owned, minority-owned, and 
woman-owned business that has already made significant partnerships and 
connections to spur economic growth in Cabarrus County. Their 
collaboration with other businesses seeks to recognize and address many 
public needs in our community. Among many other partnerships and 
initiatives, Tastebuds Popcorn Concord worked with the Cabarrus County 
Convention and Visitor's Bureau to assist with NASCAR's 2021 Drive for 
the Cure 250 and partnered with law enforcement to advance safety 
initiatives and community relations. Tastebuds Popcorn Concord has also 
sponsored multiple public high school sports teams and the Teacher's 
Resource, a nonprofit that provides support to teachers in multiple 
cities nationwide. I join the rest of our community in thanking 
Tastebuds Popcorn Concord for their contributions to our local economy 
and dedicated charitable services.
  Tastebuds Popcorn Concord has achieved swift and impactful success 
and is truly deserving of this award. I wish its management and 
employees success as they continue to provide excellent service to our 
community. I personally look forward to my next visit when I'm back 
home in Concord.
  Madam Speaker, please join me today in congratulating Tastebuds 
Popcorn Concord on receiving the 2021 Cabarrus Regional Chamber of 
Commerce New Business of the Year Award.
