2022 Business Awards Finalists

Picture

To celebrate another year of businesses rising to meet every challenge, the Greater Victoria Chamber of Commerce is proud to announce the finalists for The Chamber’s 2022 Greater Victoria Business Awards.

The finalists, listed below, have distinguished themselves across 14 Business Award categories, including excellent customer service, sustainable business practices, young entrepreneurship and business leadership.

The Chamber’s 2022 Greater Victoria Business Awards shine a light on hard-working businesses, businesspeople and community leaders. Finalists were chosen by an independent panel of prominent business leaders who served as judges.

“We’re proud to provide some positive news that gives the business community a welcome boost right now,” said Bruce Williams, CEO of the Greater Victoria Chamber of Commerce. “The finalists announced today are a true inspiration to all businesses looking to grow and prosper in the months and years ahead. To be named a finalist means they have gone above and beyond as an exceptional organization or entrepreneur.” 
The Chamber's 2022 Business Awards will be held on May 7 at the Fairmont Empress. The event will also be broadcast on CHEK TV. Last year’s broadcast reached 80,000 viewers. ​
