We’re excited to announce that the Premier of Queensland’s Export Awards (Export Awards) are back for their 35th year—continuing their proud legacy as Queensland’s highest export honour and one of the state’s most prestigious business accolades.

These awards celebrate the strength and success of Queensland’s impressive $134.7 billion export industry, shining a spotlight on the extraordinary achievements of exporting businesses across the state.

The Export Awards recognise the innovation, creativity, passion, and drive embedded in our export community—the very qualities that power Queensland’s sustained success on the global stage. By applying, you’ll not only showcase your business excellence but also have the chance to become part of Team Queensland: the winners who go on to represent our state at the national level in the Australian Export Awards.

Applications open 29 April 2025
