Business Excellence Awards

The Greater Vernon Chamber of Commerce's Business Excellence Awards is a distinguished annual event that celebrates the remarkable achievements of local businesses, organizations, and individuals who make our community vibrant and prosperous. Now in its 40th year, the awards showcase excellence across 19 categories, including Agri-Business, Small, Medium & Large Business of the Year, Non-Profit Excellence, and Trades Business of the Year, among others.

Each year, we invite the community to nominate deserving businesses and individuals who have demonstrated outstanding performance, leadership, innovation, and dedication to the Greater Vernon area.

Winners are chosen through a rigorous judging process and will be announced at a prestigious, Oscar-style gala event on October 24 at the Vernon & District Performing Arts Centre. This elegant evening brings together the region's top business leaders, community members, and dignitaries for a night of celebration, entertainment, and recognition of excellence.

Join us for this inspiring event, where we come together to honor those who drive our community forward, celebrate their successes, and acknowledge their contributions to making Vernon a better place to live, work, and do business.
