In a statement, Mornington Peninsula Shire said the awards “recognise adaptability in an ever-changing business landscape and leadership in the areas of business excellence, innovation and sustainability. Just simply managing the day-to-day operations involved in running a business can be an enormous feat, never mind when economic challenges and other external pressures come into play. Local businesses who are not only surviving but thriving are truly deserving of the recognition and praise that come with this accolade”.
“This year, council received over 60 nominations from local businesses. The number and quality of submissions received are indicative of the incredible expertise and enthusiasm that exists among the business community on the Mornington Peninsula. All businesses who nominated, regardless of how far they made it in the judging journey, should be proud of their hard work and the time and effort they put behind their submission.
“The community, businesses and their supporters are invited to come together to recognise and applaud the dedication, resilience and ingenuity that local businesses have demonstrated over the past couple of years. This year, the celebrations are being taken to the next level, with the gala ceremony being held at the stunning RACV Cape Schanck Resort. Everyone is encouraged to come along for a night to remember. Network with like-minded peers, be inspired by the stories of fellow businesspeople, enjoy a delectable three-course dinner and drinks – supporting local where possible, of course – and soak in the beauty of the natural surrounds and atmosphere in a world-class venue. Bring your friends and family – the more the merrier.”
