After a successful return in 2024, the Eurobodalla Business Awards are back, with entries open until the end of April.

Whether it’s a new startup, a long-standing enterprise or sole-trader, Eurobodalla Mayor Mathew Hatcher is encouraging local businesses to enter.

“Celebrating the achievements in our business sectors inspires others, growing Eurobodalla’s economy,” Mayor Hatcher says.

“It’s an easy online form to enter – just simply fill out your business and contact details, then outline your achievements or challenges you’ve overcome.”

Mayor Hatcher introduced new categories this year – an Outstanding Indigenous Business award as well as micro, small, and large business awards.

“This means every business has an opportunity to enter. There are twelve different categories recognising individual or business accomplishments. All entries will be put forward to a panel of expert judges.”

Award categories are:

• Outstanding Employee
• Outstanding Young Business Leader
• Excellence in Sustainability
• Outstanding Community Organisation
• Outstanding New Business
• Excellence in Diversity and Inclusion
• Excellence in Micro Business
• Excellence in Small Business
• Excellence in Large Business
• Outstanding Visitor Experience
• Outstanding Indigeous Business
• Business of the Year

Winners will be announced at a gala ceremony at the Bay Pavilions on Saturday 14 June. To find out more about the awards visit the Eurobodalla Business Awards webpage.

Finalists in some of the categories will qualify to represent Eurobodalla in regional awards, with the chance for further recognition at state awards later this year. Submit entries online by Wednesday 30 April.
