St.Lucia Chamber of Commerce Launches 11th Business Awards After Five-Year Hiatus
Theme: A Celebration of Saint Lucian Resilience
The Saint Lucia Chamber of Commerce, Industry and Agriculture proudly announces the long-awaited return of the prestigious Saint Lucia Business Awards, now launching its 11th edition after a five-year pause. The 2025 theme, “A Celebration of Saint Lucian Resilience,” sets the tone for a program designed to recognize and reward excellence, innovation, and tenacity across the business community.
A Powerful Return
Mr. Ross Gardener, in addressing the significance of the Awards’ return, remarked:
“The answer is simple, yet powerful — the last five years demanded our complete focus on helping. During that time, your Chamber launched the Small Member Support Program, helped smaller businesses master critical tasks like tax filing and digital transformation, and guided hundreds of entrepreneurs through training in costing and pricing, business continuity planning, and sales leadership. We partnered with the St. Lucia Youth Business Trust to empower our youngest innovators.”
Fresh Categories and Real Value
Awards Committee Chair, Ms. Karen Peter, shared exciting updates:
“We’ve revamped the tried-and-true categories and added new ones to reflect what resilience means in this new age. You won’t just be taking home a trophy — you’ll also receive tangible benefits your enterprise can utilize for months after the event.”
Submission forms will be available online at www.stluciachamber.org and as hard copies at the Chamber’s Secretariat. To ensure maximum accessibility, the Chamber will also release infographic instructional videos on its social media platforms. Organizations have until September 9th to make their submissions, with nominations to follow soon after.
