2025 AWARDS

CELEBRATING BUSINESS IN THE YASS VALLEY

The Yass Valley Business Chamber Awards celebrates the innovation, resilience and dedication of businesses across the Yass Valley. We believe that businesses play a vital role in driving economic growth, creating jobs, and contributing to the overall well-being of our region. That's why we are committed to recognising the hard work and dedication of businesses of all sizes and industries.


We have created an awards program designed to showcase the best of the best. Whether you are a startup, a small business, or a large corporation, we have a category that recognises your unique accomplishments. From ‘Pride in Workmanship’ to innovative products and services to exceptional customer service and community involvement, we celebrate all aspects of business excellence.



By participating in the Business Awards, you become part of a community of like-minded individuals who share your passion for success. Our judges bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to the table, providing valuable feedback and insights that can help you take your business to the next level.
