Preparations for the Westpac Northland Business Excellence Awards are well underway for 2014 and the NZ Chambers of Commerce Northland is delighted with the number and quality of entries received for the business categories awards.
Business Excellence Awards are run regionally throughout New Zealand, recognising and celebrating the business success of local companies. For businesses going through the awards process it is a way to identify strengths and challenges that exist and find new ways to deal with them through a renewed focus on their business. The process for the 2014 Northland business excellence awards entrants began back in April when entries opened, and includes a tight judging process, a networking evening for entrants and culminates in a black tie formal awards presentation and gala dinner event.
