EASTON Lawyers were inducted into the Glassies Hall of Fame at the annual local business awards in recognition of their years of tireless service to the Maleny and hinterland communities.
Hosted by Glass House MP, Andrew Powell in partnership with neighbouring Caloundra MP Kendall Morton, the small business awards saw The Barn on Flaxton receive the coveted Gold Glassie.
About 120 business owners and staff attended the awards held on Tuesday, May 28 at the Woodford Hotel.
Special guests included Small Business Minister Steve Minnikin.
Mr Powell said the Glassies were all about “celebrating the people behind our region’s local small businesses – the heart and soul of our community”.
With over 3,000 public votes received, the Silver Glassies were awarded based on community support; Bronze Glassies were chosen by the Presidents of the local Chambers of Commerce, while the prestigious Gold Glassies were handpicked by Mr Powell in consultation with the Chamber Presidents.
“Thank you to everyone who nominated, voted, and contributed to another great Glassies Gala for 2025,” said Mr Powell.
He said the event highlighted the critical role small businesses play in building strong, connected communities and driving the local economy forward.
