Sustainable Choice Group is proud to announce the winners of the 2025 Sustainability Tracker Impact Awards. This year’s event at Canvas House in South Melbourne was dedicated to celebrating the real progress brands are making to help consumers understand sustainability, build trust through transparency and make meaningful improvements while growing successful, profitable businesses.
The 2025 Impact Awards were presented in partnership with Xero. Their continued support strengthens our shared mission to make sustainability more accessible and achievable for businesses of every size.
A heartfelt thank you to every organisation that submitted an entry this year. Sharing detailed evidence, opening up your sustainability work and committing to transparency is not an easy feat, and we are genuinely grateful for the effort behind every submission.
Your willingness to show your progress, challenges and real-world actions is what makes this community so strong. We’re proud to have you on the Sustainability Tracker platform and deeply appreciate the trust you place in the program.
We hope to see you back again next year, continuing to share your journey and helping more Australians understand what meaningful sustainability progress looks like in practice.
This award celebrates the member who set a new benchmark for clarity and openness this year. Green Moves showed a well above-average standard of transparency by giving users clear, evidence-backed information that was easy to understand and simple to verify. Judges commended their commitment to presenting accurate, accessible disclosures and supporting every claim with meaningful evidence.
The Transformation Award recognises the organisation that demonstrated the most significant sustainability progress relative to their starting point and resources. The ABSC stood out for their strategic vision, practical implementation and measurable improvements in both environmental and social performance. Judges praised their ability to adapt, innovate and shift their wider industry toward a more sustainable future.
This award celebrates the organisation that played a leading role in helping consumers understand circularity and adopt more responsible practices. Pablo & Rusty’s demonstrated strong examples of circular design, resource recovery and accessible consumer education. Judges highlighted their real-world implementation of circular systems and the practical tools they provided to help people keep materials in use for longer.
The Most Influential Award recognises the organisation creating momentum across customers, industry and community. Dilmah impressed judges with their ability to reach broad audiences, collaborate widely and use their platform to lift sustainability awareness for all of us. Their actions, partnerships and communication efforts helped more people understand sustainable choices and inspired positive change at scale.
The High Achiever Award celebrates exceptional dedication and measurable progress. Who Gives A Crap demonstrated strong strategic direction, detailed evidence and a clear roadmap for long and short-term sustainability goals. Judges noted their resilience, adaptability and commitment to achieving meaningful outcomes that reflect both ambition and strong execution inside their business and within the wider community.
This category recognises small businesses that prove size is no barrier to significant sustainability progress. Zea did just that by demonstrating strong values, community contribution and thoughtful environmental action while remaining competitive in their market. Judges highlighted their industry leadership, customer satisfaction and the strength of their commitment to embedding sustainability into the heart of their business.
This award celebrates outstanding organisations that are behind the scenes making sustainability possible for businesses. South Pole demonstrated deep expertise, measurable impact and a commitment to making high-quality sustainability support accessible for organisations of all sizes. Judges noted their strong client outcomes, innovative service delivery and leadership through education, resources and capacity building across the sector.
The People’s Choice Award celebrates the businesses that have truly connected with our audience. This year’s winner was voted on by our Sustainability Tracker community, who recognised John West‘s commitment to making sustainability clearer, more accessible and more meaningful for everyday consumers. Their work inspired the strongest support from our community and reflects the positive change people are eager to champion.
Now in its second year, the 2025 Sustainability Tracker Impact Awards continued to grow, with more organisations choosing to share their evidence and take part in the program. Entrants shared detailed evidence of their sustainability progress, including emissions reporting, material improvements and clearer communication for consumers. This growing participation signals that transparent, evidence-led sustainability reporting is becoming a stronger priority for organisations, and that the program is evolving in step with the needs of industry.
We extend our sincere thanks to our judges, who volunteered their time to review each submission with care, attention and expertise. Their insights and commitment ensure that every award is grounded in evidence and focused on meaningful progress.
We acknowledge and thank our presenting partner, Xero. Their support plays an invaluable role in expanding the program and helping us recognise the businesses working hard to make sustainability a core part of everyday business practice.
Thank you to every entrant, finalist and guest who joined us this year. Your work is helping consumers understand sustainability with more clarity and confidence, and it’s shaping a market that values honesty, evidence and real progress.
We’re excited to see where you go next and to keep championing the steps you take from here.
