2020 National Recognition Program
In 2020 we did things differently. In the face of unprecedented challenges, Australian exporters have shown remarkable resilience – and these efforts deserved to be showcased.
So rather than focusing on winners in 2020, we recognised and promoted stories of resilience, perseverance and quick-thinking pivots from determined business leaders from across the Australian exporting community.
From regional to metro, across every State and Territory, from exporters big and small.
Stories the following businesses shared with us are truly inspiring. And we want you to inspired too, so we are sharing their stories with you, so you can learn and be amazing at how resilient Australian businesses are.
