5,000 Reasons to enter our Awards

Want to be in the running to win $5,000 ?

Given the circumstances of COVID-19 and the need to do something a little different, we’re rolling out a significant pivot for the 2021 Awards.

The Gippsland Agribusiness of the Year Award for this year will now include a $5,000 cash prize, for the winner to spend at their discretion.

In “normal times” this $5,000 would have covered the required international travel for an Agri-food Insights Program, generously provided by one of our Awards Program Founding Partners, KPMG.

But with travel not possible for quite some time, we’ve seized the opportunity to reinvest these dollars back into Gippsland, keep the money in the region and give our amazing food and fibre businesses a new incentive to enter the Awards.

Entries close 19 September 2021.

All the forms and details of categories and how to enter can be found online – to access the category descriptions and entry forms click here - Food and Fibre Awards

With the departure of Kate Foster to Wellington Shire Council as their new Manager Economic Development, there is a new Awards Program Manager in place for the rest of this year – the fabulous Liz Fleming ( you might know her as The Efficiency Coach ! )

Now is the time to finalise your entries - there's plenty of time, even if you haven’t started yet!

If you need some guidance with your entry, or want to discuss what categories are the best fit for your business, then please get in touch – Liz is here to help. 

We look forward to receiving your entry -  these Awards are such an important vehicle for recognising success, sharing achievements and inspiring others in our region.

Small, medium or large  - it doesn’t matter what size your business is.

Everyone plays a huge role in the vibrant diversity and trusted provenance the region is known for.

Let's tell your story and celebrate the best of Gippsland Food & Fibre !
