Facilitated by Hunter Region Business Hub, the awards were founded in 1993 as the Cessnock-Kurri Kurri Small Business Awards; have grown to encompass the entire Hunter Region and are one of the longest-running and most prestigious awards events in the region.
Hunter Region Business Hub general manager Kerry Hallett encourages all new and established businesses to apply.
"Unlike some other awards, the Hunter Region Business Excellence Awards are not a popularity vote. They are about valuing and recognising local businesses that are built on viable and sustainable foundations," Ms Hallett said.
"Our judges look at the motivation behind the business, the distinct ways each business serves their niche, determination to overcome challenges, innovations, and commitment to excellence."

Applications are due by December 4, 2022.
