The rule

Headquartered here, or not listed

Independent businesses headquartered in New York qualify. It’s an honest, checkable line: an independent business keeps its decisions and dollars in-state.

What’s excluded

Chains and franchises

National chains and franchises are excluded even when a local family owns the location. No exceptions, no paid placements around the rule.

Got it wrong?

Owners set the record

Exclusion runs on blocklists and heuristics, so mistakes happen. Claiming your listing is the correction mechanism — read the standard.
