The finalists of the Casey Business Awards 2024 program have been announced and they could not be more unique.
Together, the 17 finalists represent a spectrum of industries operating across the City of Casey such as, veterinary services, music tuition, early childcare education, mobile food trailer rentals, furniture removals and a quilting business, to name just a few.
City of Casey CEO Glenn Patterson was thrilled that so many local businesses took the time to invest into their future by applying.
'Local businesses are critically important to our city; they provide the drum beat to which our residents live, work and play," Glenn said.
'We’re so appreciative that so many are investing in themselves and their future.'
The annual Business Awards program celebrates the dedication of local businesses, while giving them the space and guidance to further invest into their business. Plus, winners of each of the categories take home a cash prize and pride of place among celebrated past winners.
Each applicant receives tailored business advice from our panel of expert judges - a tangible memento of the effort they committed to improving their business through the process.
The finalists of each category were announced progressively on Council’s business social accounts over five days, allowing time for each business to be surprised in-person at their place of work with the exciting news.
You can see each finalists’ reaction at our Business in Casey Facebook page.
