Celebrating small business

The Lord Mayor’s Commendations are back this year, celebrating the contribution small businesses make to the city.

The commendations are open to any business proprietor within the City of Melbourne who employs 20 people or less and has operated continuously for more than 10 years. There is also a commendation for businesses run by three or more generations of the one family.

Commendations for small business proprietors include: Generational; 50+ years; 40+ years; 25+ years; and 10+ years.

The Lord Mayor’s Commendations are free to enter and recipients will be invited to take part in a photographic exhibition and a presentation ceremony with the Lord Mayor.

Applications close on Friday, April 26.
