Mayor Cameron McDonald said the nominees and winners of the Kiama Business Awards reflected the talent, innovation and dedication across all corners of our business community.
"The majority of our local enterprises are small businesses: family-run, owner-operated and community-connected, and our economy supports thousands of local jobs, from tourism and retail to health, construction, professional services, and agriculture" Cr McDonald said.
"We are NSW's Top Tourist Town, and these Awards show that we have so much more to offer."
"Our annual economic output is remarkable for a regional area and reflects the drive and dedication of our small and medium businesses."
"I'm proud to lead a team of councillors and staff committed to supporting our business community through strategic planning and programs, destination promotion, and infrastructure improvements."
"Good things happen when governments, businesses and communities work together. This is especially true of the Kiama LGA. Congratulations to the Kiama Business Network, the nominees, the Winners and our local businesses on such an outstanding night."
