3 reasons Wellington businesses don't enter the Business Excellence Awards (and why none of them hold up)

"We're not a Chamber member." You don't need to be. Anyone in the region can enter.

"We'll do it next year." Every year someone says this, and every year they mean it, but next year has a way of becoming "the year after." Entries are open now, it's free, and it takes less time than you think.

"We're too small / not flashy enough." The 2degrees Wellington Regional Business Excellence Awards has a category for businesses of every size, from solo operators to major employers. If you're doing good work, there's a place for you.

So if you've been putting off entering because you assumed it "wasn't for you," or telling yourself you'll get to it later, this is the year.

Great news from one of our members, Brendan Foot Supersite: Isuzu have just launched some good discounts on the D-MAX ute and the 7-seater MU-X SUV.

The D-MAX is one of the few utes in NZ still running a 3.0L Diesel engine, with proven performance. The MU-X shares the same engine, plus 3.5T towing and strong off-road ability.

Both come with a 6-year extended warranty, and stock is available now with no factory wait time.

Offers run until 31 October 2026.

Great service isn't an accident. It's a standard.

That's exactly why we're thrilled to have IT Works sponsoring the Excellence in Service and Support category at the 2degrees Wellington Regional Business Excellence Awards.

IT Works doesn't just talk service, they live it. As a leading IT provider in our region, they understand better than most that behind every reliable, responsive business is a team committed to doing right by their clients, every single day.

This category was made for organisations just like that: accountants, lawyers, recruiters, advisors, software and IT providers, marketing agencies, healthcare and community support groups, designers, architects, engineers and real estate professionals. Anyone whose business is built on service, not product.

If that sounds like you, this is your moment to be recognised.

Manufacturing makes the Hutt Valley what it is. Time to get recognised for it.

Got a product going out the door, whether it's landing on shelves in New Zealand or shipping overseas? The Excellence in Manufacturing Award, sponsored by Aspeq, is your category.

You don't need to be the biggest name in the room. You need to be doing the work well: solving problems, building quality, growing a team, making things that matter.

Entering isn't about winning. It's about:

✅ Getting your business in front of the region's top decision-makers
✅ A free, honest look at how you're tracking against the best in the game
✅ The kind of credibility that opens doors with customers, investors and talent
✅ Team pride that's hard to buy any other way

And here's the kicker: every business that enters goes in the draw to win a $1000 Prezzy Card. So even before the judges get involved, you're already in with a shot.

Entries for the 2degrees Wellington Regional Business Excellence Awards close 5pm Friday 25th September.

Started in a garage in Tawa. Now exporting world-leading fire detection technology to Australia and the US. That's the story behind Pertronic Industries, and exactly why they sponsor Excellence in Technology and Innovation at the 2degrees Wellington Regional Business Excellence Awards.

Since 1982, Pertronic has designed and manufactured fire alarm systems out of their Lower Hutt factory, going from one of seven local manufacturers to the last one standing, purely by out-innovating everyone else. Their tech protects hospitals, high-rises, tunnels and shopping malls across the country, engineered and built right here in the Hutt. That's not imported innovation. That's homegrown, R&D-driven, world-competitive tech coming out of our region.

If your business is solving problems with smarter tools, better systems, or tech nobody else in your industry has thought to build yet, this category was made for you.

Innovating in your corner of the region? Get it recognised. Enter now: bit.ly/WRBEA26

Thank you, Pertronic Industries. 🙌

There's one category at the 2degrees Wellington Regional Business Excellence Awards you don't win with a judging panel - you win with your customers, your community, and your network. That's ANZ Aotearoa's People's Choice Award.

It fits them perfectly. As New Zealand's largest bank, ANZ backs businesses of every size across the region, but their real focus is showing up for the people behind the numbers - with local business banking specialists, hands-on support to get through the tough early years, and insights to help owners make sharper calls. Banking that's about relationships, not just transactions.

People's Choice works the same way: only finalists make the cut, and then it's over to the public. No judges, no panel - just your community deciding who's earned it. If your customers, staff, family and followers show up for you, this is the category that rewards it.

You cant be a finalist unless you enter, so get yours in now: bit.ly/WRBEA26

Thank you, ANZ. 🙌
