Messenger Community Newspapers are pleased to present the 2011 Local Business Awards.

These Awards would not be possible without the support of our valued Sponsors. This year we are delighted to welcome back Bendigo Bank as Gold Sponsor of the Awards and Sponsor of the Bendigo Bank Gold and Silver Awards for Excellence for the third consecutive year. We also welcome back our Silver Sponsor SafeWork SA and our Media Partner Network 10. Their ongoing support ensures that the Messenger Local Business Awards maintains its position as the leading Awards program in Adelaide's local business community.

Now in its 19th year, the Messenger Local Business Awards recognises and celebrates excellence in quality and service. Throughout this time many hundreds of local businesses have taken the opportunity to promote their achievement and attract more customers.

The Awards also provide Messenger readers with a meaningful way of expressing their gratitude as satisfied customers.

So vote for your favourite local business, or register your own business and encourage your customers to vote, and watch your local Messenger Newspaper or follow us on facebook for more information.

There are great prizes for businesses AND voters.
