Leading local businesses celebrated at 2025 Mornington Peninsula Business Excellence Awards
06 November 2025
Mornington Peninsula Shire is delighted to announce the winners of the 2025 Mornington Peninsula Business Excellence Awards following a vibrant celebration that took place last night at The National Golf Club in Cape Schanck.
More than 140 local business owners, industry leaders and community supporters came together for an inspiring evening recognising the leadership and talent that forms the backbone of our local economy. The atmosphere was warm, lively and energising, with finalists and attendees celebrating the positive impact local businesses make across the region and in the community.
This year, the Business Excellence Awards, part of the Shire’s year-round Business Excellence Program, honours businesses that demonstrate outstanding performance in Customer Experience, Environmental Sustainability and Local Community Connection across various business size groups. Some businesses also received Special Recognition for their efforts in the space of Accessibility & Inclusion.
The Awards can be seen as a powerful tool for growth, as they encourage businesses to reflect deeply on their journey, strengths and opportunities as well as celebrate their teams and share their achievements with the broader community. In doing so, they can receive important recognition for their hard work and build on their brand awareness.
The results from the rigorous judging process – led by independent experts from the Small Business Mentoring Service – highlight the high standard of innovation, strategic thinking and community spirit across the Peninsula.
Mornington Peninsula Shire congratulates all entrants, finalists and winners for their outstanding contribution to the region.
