Queensland exporters recognised

NOJA Power has been named Queensland Exporter of the Year at the Premier of Queensland’s Export Awards 2024.

Winners of the 13 national categories were in the running for the top award announced last week with two Queensland-only awards also presented.

Exporting since 2002, NOJA Power is based at Murarrie in Brisbane and designs, manufactures and sells switching equipment to protect and control the electricity distribution grid.

Their Queensland-made products are used to safely and efficiently operate electricity networks in 106 countries.

NOJA Power won the award after earlier taking out the Sustainability and Green Economy category.

Now in their 34th year, the Export Awards recognise Queensland businesses for their innovation, resilience and determination as they strive to grow and expand their global footprint.

The 13 national category winners will now represent Queensland at the Australian Export Awards, hosted by Austrade, on 20 November in Canberra.

“The Queensland Export Awards – my first as Premier – are an acknowledgement of every single business and exporter’s hard work in putting our state on the world stage,“ Premier Steven Miles said.

“Exports are the engine of this economy. We are a trading state.“

Among the finalists in the 13 national categories was S. Kidman, a successful beef producing company whose executive chairman Gina Rinehart owns several properties in Noosa.

S. Kidman was a finalist in the Agribusiness, Food and Beverages category which was won by Frosty Boy Global.
