2025 Premier's Business and Export Awards Finalists Announced

The South Australian Business Chamber, in partnership with the Government of South Australia, has announced the finalists for the South Australian Premier’s Business and Export Awards 2025.

These awards recognise the outstanding contribution of our local businesses to South Australia’s social, environmental, and economic framework.

South Australian Business Chamber Andrew Kay CEO said the calibre of nominations was exceptionally strong again this year. 

“It is always a challenge for the judges to select the finalists from so many high-quality applications,” said Mr Kay.

“It reflects the breadth of high-achieving businesses operating here in South Australia and reinforces why The Premier’s Business and Export Awards has quickly built a reputation as the pinnacle of business awards in our state,” said Mr Kay.

All of today’s finalists are automatically considered for two prestigious major awards: South Australian Business of the Year and South Australian Exporter of the Year, to be presented by the Premier of South Australia, Peter Malinauskas.

Winners will be announced at a Gala Dinner at the Adelaide Convention Centre on Friday 29 August 2025.

All winners of the export award national categories will automatically be entered as finalists in the Australian Exporter Awards, held in Canberra in November 2025. 

“The feedback from previous years’ finalists is that the night was a celebration beyond their expectations and they have benefited from this acknowledgement in their marketing and communications. 

“With the Premier and other political, government and business leaders in attendance, this event presents a wonderful opportunity to network at South Australia’s Business Night of Nights,” said Mr Kay.
