Presented by North Carolina-based publication, Enterprising Women, a women-owned magazine published exclusively for women business owners that chronicles the growing political, economic and social influence of entrepreneurial women, the awards honor the country's top women entrepreneurs and their achievements. Winners are also recognized as leaders who have given back to other women in business, and have had a profound impact on their community.
"Kristina Bouweiri is an accomplished entrepreneur who has earned the respect and admiration of her community," said Monica Smiley, publisher and CEO of Enterprising Women. "This award is a testament to Kristina's remarkable accomplishments and business acumen."
Already the largest luxury transportation service in the Commonwealth, Reston Limousine with its 137 vehicles now ranks 23rd in the nation in operational size. The company is also among the top 10 largest shuttle bus fleets in the country, and has 259 employees.
Founded in Reston in 1990, Reston Limousine recently purchased property and relocated from Shaw Road in Sterling to its own facility on Elmwood Court in the Dulles corridor of Loudoun County.
Reston Limousine is well known locally for its government shuttle transportation services, innovative wine country tours and wedding, social, and VIP transportation. It is recognized as the official transportation provider of the Washington Capitals.
Bouweiri is actively involved in a number of local organizations, including the Loudoun Chamber of Commerce, Committee for Dulles, the Loudoun Convention and Visitors Association, and numerous trade organizations.
Through Bouweiri's efforts, her company is a consistent advocate for children's causes as well as other charitable efforts, resulting in the donation of over $150,000 in funds and gifts-in-kind within the Washington metropolitan area.
