The Greater Victoria Chamber of Commerce is proud to announce the finalists of the 2021 Greater Victoria Business Awards.
The finalists have distinguished themselves in many categories and many ways, including excellent customer service, sustainable business practices, young entrepreneurship and business leadership.
The Chamber’s 2021 Greater Victoria Business Awards shine a light on hard-working businesses, business people and community leaders in 14 categories worth celebrating.
Finalists were chosen by an independent panel of prominent business leaders who served as judges.
“The finalists announced today all are shining examples of leadership and innovation during the COVID-19 pandemic,” Chamber CEO Bruce Williams says. “There is not a single business that has not been affected by the pandemic over the past year. Each of these businesses have a unique story to tell on how they overcame challenges and went the extra mile to ensure that, despite facing adversity, their business continues to thrive.”
The Chamber previously announced that Frank Bourree will receive the Governors’ Award of Distinction, and that John Espley has been named The Chamber’s 2021 Member of the Year.
The 2021 Greater Victoria Business Awards will be broadcast on May 15, 2021 on CHEK at 6PM.
