Bass Coast Shire Council is proud to announce the finalists for the 2026 Bass Coast Business Awards, celebrating the outstanding businesses who help make Bass Coast a vibrant place to live, work and visit.
The awards recognise excellence across two streams: the Judged Awards, which acknowledge outstanding business achievement, innovation and leadership, and the People’s Choice Awards, where community members nominate and vote for their favourite local businesses.
Bass Coast Deputy Mayor, Cr Ron Bauer congratulated all finalists on their achievement.
“One of the best things about Bass Coast is how unique out businesses are. No two are the same, and that’s what makes our region what it is,” Cr Bauer said.
“The calibre of this year’s finalists is exceptional and reflects the passion, resilience and innovation that exists across our business community. Congratulations to every business that put themselves forward and to those who have been recognised as finalists. It’s a fantastic achievement and something to be proud of. The decision to make will be a tough one.”
Winners will be announced at the 2026 Bass Coast Business Awards Gala Night on Friday, 21 August 2026, at Silverwater Resort in San Remo.
The evening will bring together businesses, sponsors, industry leaders and community members to celebrate local success stories and recognise the significant contribution businesses make to the Bass Coast community and economy.
