Inner West’s BEST BUSINESSES 27
2026 FINALISTS now con=rmed N OMINATIONS for this year’s Inner West Local Business Awards have now closed, and an outstanding number of votes have been placed by the local community. Our team has tallied the votes and are busy notifying Ĝnalists of their success and sending out Ĝnalist packs in the mail. Precedent Productions Managing Director and Awards Founder Steve Loe would like to congratulate each and every Ĝnalist and thank them for the exceptional goods and services they provide for the Inner West community. Mr. Loe said “being selected as a Ĝnalist in the Local Business Awards is a phenomenal achievement and can provide a huge psychological and practical boost for local businesses owners and their stađ”. Business Ĝnalists are now able to complete their
online Ĝnalist questions and submit any additional information they feel may be relevant to judges. Mystery shoppers will be sent out to each business to assess goods and services from a customer’s point of view, evaluating product range, value for money, and quality of service. This information is judged by a panel of anonymous, impartial representatives who will select category winners. The winners will be announced live at the Awards Presentation Evening held on Monday, 1 June 2026 at Le Montage. The Presentation Evening grants a night of celebration for business owners, their stađ, and their loved ones, as well as an exceptional networking opportunity for all businesses, partners, and dignitaries involved.
Mr. Loe would like to thank this year’s Presenting Partner: Commonwealth Bank, Major Partners: Inner West Council, City of Canada Bay Council, NOVA Employment, AshĜeld Mall, and Big Clean, and Support Partners: StrathĜeld Council, Bx Networking, and 2RDJ FM who have thrown their support behind the local business community and the Inner West awards program.
