Nominations are open for Kingston’s inaugural Sustainable Business Awards.
The awards, which are being generously supported by Community Bank Parkdale, have been established as a platform for our business community to showcase and celebrate their achievements in a broad range of sustainability initiatives.
Mayor Hadi Saab said we have a remarkably innovative and diverse business community in Kingston and it’s important we recognise and applaud those businesses and individuals making the world a better place.
“The awards are deliberately positioned to increase awareness of sustainable business best practices and demonstrate how sustainable business benefits our community and our environment,” Cr Saab said.
