The 2019 EBEX Awards are officially year with many great Estevan businesses to be honoured.

Jackie Wall, the executive director for Estevan's Chamber of Commerceis excited for the event and shared what people attending can expect and what the event is all about.

"Tonight we have the fifth bye-annual EBEX awards, celebrating excellence in Estevan business. We have 11 awards to hand out tonight, so we are very excited about that. We have just over 260 people attending so we are calling that a sellout as that was our goal. We were so pleased with all of the support of these awards."

Wall was also very complimentary towards business owners in Estevan for their ability to keep moving forward even when times are tough.

"There have been some amazing success stories. The great thing about Estevan is that there is a huge resilience, there are very creative thinkers. There are people that really understand that things are tough and think, "you know what, we are tougher, and we are going to make it through" and people that at how they can diversify and find new partnerships and find a solution."

We will have a recap of the awards as well as a list of the recipients tonight after the conclusion of the event.
