What an unforgettable night. Honoured to take home the Small Business Champion Trades Entrepreneur Award at the Australian Small Business Champion Awards.

This achievement wouldn’t have been possible without the incredible people I have in my circle. My team, family, friends, and business partners who continue to support and inspire me every step of the way.

I love what I do, and this only motivates me to keep pushing, keep growing, and keep building. The best is yet to come.

About the awards

A national mandate for trades excellence.

Australian Small Business Champion Awards ceremony

The Australian Trades Small Business Champion Awards debuted in 2023 with a mandate to celebrate the country’s most inspiring small businesses in the trades sector. The awards were founded by Steve Loe, Managing Director of Precedent Productions.

“Small businesses have endured a tough couple of years but they remain as dedicated as ever to serve their communities to a high standard, and it shows, based on the entries we received from all around the country.”

Steve Loe, Awards Founder

The inaugural year drew thousands of entries and honoured 50 category winners alongside five individual category recipients, recognised at a red-carpet event hosted by accomplished journalist and broadcaster Chris O’Keefe. The awards ensure that recognition reaches every corner of the country, from major capital cities to regional, rural, and suburban towns.
