The finalists have been announced for the 2024 Comox Valley Chamber of Commerce awards, which is set to celebrate 50 years of recognizing excellence in business and community service. 

Since 1974, the Chamber Awards have honoured the achievements of businesses, organizations, and individuals who have made a lasting impact on the Comox Valley. Throughout the decades, the awards have evolved, with new categories and expanded recognition, but have always remained focused on celebrating outstanding contributions to our community.

This year’s 50th anniversary promises to be a memorable celebration, as we recognize those who have demonstrated innovation, leadership, and service. The finalists represent the best of our region, and we look forward to celebrating their accomplishments at the Chamber Awards Gala on Jan. 25, 2025 at the Florence Filberg Centre, where winners will be announced in a fun, disco-themed evening of recognition and celebration.

Join us as we commemorate this milestone and the people who make the Comox Valley an exceptional place to live and work.
