Last night, at a ceremony at Adelaide Oval, 18 winners of the 2023 MFAA State Excellence Awards for South Australia and Northern Territory were announced.
The event was the final of five state award events held in June, culminating in the National MFAA Excellence Awards ceremony on Thursday 27 July.
The MFAA Excellence Awards recognise those members who have excelled in areas including customer service, professionalism, ethics, growth and innovation.
“It’s been wonderful to celebrate our members’ achievements across the country at each of our State Excellence Awards, and the ceremony here in Adelaide has been no exception,” said MFAA CEO Anja Pannek.
“Our members deliver outstanding outcomes for Australians every day which is evident from the quality and number of nominations we received this year, and the recognition of all finalists and winners is well deserved.”
All winners at the South Australia/Northern Territory MFAA State Excellence Awards will be finalists in the MFAA National Excellence Awards in their respective categories.
The awards are audited by Hall Chadwick and are judged equally based on excellence and professionalism across all areas of business.
