Celebrating local businesses

The region’s top businesses, employees, and volunteers have been celebrated at the 2024 Strathbogie Shire Business Awards ceremony.

The event was hosted by the Euroa Chamber of Business and Commerce and GoNagambie, with businesses and community groups from across the region gathering together for a fantastic evening at Fowles Winery in Avenel.

The Nationals’ Member for Euroa, Annabelle Cleeland, spoke at the event to congratulate award winners, and thank sponsors and organisers for their work promoting local businesses.

“Euroa Chamber of Business and Commerce and GoNagambie are protecting, supporting, and encouraging growth in the region and making our towns a place that anyone will want to visit, or even move to,” Ms Cleeland said.

“Whether it be splash parks, accommodation, wineries, restaurants, cafés, or local volunteers – all the nominees offer something crucial to our region.

“I look forward to seeing our towns continue to grow, our businesses continue to thrive, and visitors continuing to enjoy the best of what our region offers.

“Congratulations to all the nominees, winners, and everyone involved with making this incredible event happen.”
