Manufacturers among the winners of the export awards

Victoria’s top exporters have been celebrated at the 45th Governor of Victoria Export Awards, with 14 businesses taking out awards for championing homegrown products on the global stage.

Minister for Economic Growth Tim Pallas last week joined the governor of Victoria, professor the Honourable Margaret Gardner AC, to congratulate the winners.

The winners represented key industries including agribusiness, food and beverages, resources and energy, manufacturing, advanced technologies and sustainability.

“Our 2024 winners and finalists showcase the quality of Victoria’s homegrown products and services that are providing solutions to real world problems,” said Pallas. 

“Victorian businesses are leading the way and exporting their innovations to the world – creating local jobs and driving economic growth in the process.”

The category of outstanding international success in the field of manufactured foods, beverages or agricultural products included primary production, forestry and fisheries and related services or technology. 

Dairy ingredient processor Burra Foods beat out other finalists Australian Tea Masters​ and Bubs Australia​. 

The state awards form part of the Australian Export Awards, with Victorian winners qualifying for consideration at the national awards in November.

Exports play a critical role in Victoria’s ongoing economic growth by contributing more than $67 billion and helping to support more than 330,000 jobs ranging from food and agribusiness to technology, health and international education.
