Celebrating what makes us special
The North West Country Business Awards 2025 Gala Event was held at Markovina Vineyard Estate and it was a night to remember. All attendees had a blast and were treated to wonderful drinks supplied by local suppliers, delicious food and comedy from host Nick Rado.
Aisling O’Brien Photography set up a glamour photography booth where attendees, dressed to the nines, could get head shots taken. Our resident media man Zach Stark from Wylde Creative was there to capture the night and create videos of winners and runners up to share at a later date.
A big thank you to all businesses that entered, and of course all the sponsors that made the night possible. We look forward to seeing you all enter the next awards in 2027!
Christmas Window Dressing Competition
It is that time of year again when we celebrate all things North West with some Christmas Cheer. Now bigger than ever, we are opening the Christmas Window Dressing competition and have two prizes of $1500 to give away to the two best dressed buildings.
Go crazy, put your premises (or tradie van) on the map with lights, colour and bling and create more than just a place to shop for the holidays. More details can be found on our website https://northwestcountry.co.nz/christmas-window-dressing-competition/
