Phillip Island and San Remo businesses dominate the finalist list for this year's Bass Coast Business Awards, with 21 businesses nominated.

Several businesses are listed as finalists in multiple categories.

Waterline businesses are also in the finalists list, including two nominations for last year's Business of the Year Bass Coast Boat & Caravan Storage.

Bass Coast Shire Council said the awards celebrate the outstanding achievements and contributions of local businesses within our community.

There are both Judged Awards and the People's Choice Awards.

Mayor, Cr Clare Le Serve has expressed her support for this annual event.

"I would like to express our deepest congratulations to all the finalists and businesses involved. These businesses have demonstrated exceptional innovation, dedication, and community spirit," she said.
