This year’s finalists have been announce for New Zealand’s pre-eminent sustainability awards.
Now in their 20th year, the Sustainable Business Awards recognise businesses, local government, social enterprises and individuals for success in sustainability.
The 71 finalists have been announced for this year’s Sustainable Business Awards, spanning sectors from food and beverage to transport, construction, biotechnology and retirement.
Rachel Brown ONZM is founder and CEO of the Sustainable Business Network, which runs the Awards.
“These businesses are all playing a crucial role in actively addressing the urgent issues of our time, including the climate emergency and our nature crisis. They include corporates, small enterprises and individuals from the public and private sector, showing that whoever you are you have a part to play.
“Our awards have been running for 20 years and continue to prove that our small nation can make a big difference to these challenges. For some their impact is significant and local, and for others it has the potential to change the way whole sectors work” says Brown.
The winners for all categories will be announced at a ceremony at the end of November. The ceremony will be held in Auckland and broadcast online.
