Noosaville-based business Laguna Pest Control has been named the national winner in the Pest Control category at the prestigious 2025 Australian Small Business Champion Awards.
This highly regarded awards program recognises and celebrates the outstanding achievements of small business operators across Australia.
With over 5500 entries received this year from businesses in metropolitan, rural, regional and suburban areas, competition was fierce.
Of these, just 1423 finalists were selected across 106 categories, reflecting the strength and diversity of small businesses nationwide.
For Laguna Pest Control, this award represents a major milestone.
While no strangers to accolades – having already secured multiple Sunshine Coast Business Awards and the title of Australian Pest Manager of the Year – this national recognition elevates them to a new level, confirming their place among the country’s top small businesses.
Now in its 27th year, the Australian Small Business Champion Awards shine a light on the businesses that drive the economy, support their local communities, and enrich Australian culture.
The winners were announced at a glittering National Gala Presentation held at The Star Sydney on Friday 28 March.
Hosted by Channel Nine’s Jayne Azzopardi and attended by more than 1000 guests, the evening featured live entertainment and was described as the “Oscars of Australian Small Business.”
Jay and Nicky Turner, owners of Laguna Pest Control, were in attendance to receive their trophy and official certificate.
The award recognises their dedication to delivering exceptional pest control services across Noosa and their continued commitment to local excellence.
Operating with a close-knit team of 10, Laguna Pest Control remains proudly family-run. Their national recognition is not only a win for the business but also a celebration for the Noosa community they continue to serve with integrity and expertise.
