Bean Media’s Top Business Publications Australia’s Best Win Big at the 2010 Publishers Australia Excellence Awards

Bean Media Group has won two awards at the 2010 Publisher’s Australia Excellence Awards held at Dockside at Sydney’s prestigious Cockle Bay Wharf.

Over the past fifteen years, these awards have become the leading and most prestigious magazine industry awards in Australia, judged and attended by key industry players. This year, Managing Director of Essence Media and Fusion Strategy, Steve Allen led the team of thirteen judges, all of whom are top professionals in the publishing industry. “Publishers Australia were fortunate to attract some top-of-the-trade judges to the Excellence Awards for 2010,” he said. “The combined skill set, sets a new benchmark for these prestigious awards.”

Publishing top-quality business magazines, it was obvious to the team at Bean HQ that they were a stand-out choice for B2B Magazine of the Year. This award is one that demonstrates excellence across all aspects of publishing including editorial content, production, design, branding, marketing and strategic planning.

Bean Media received not one, but two awards in this category – a phenomenal achievement. Australia’s Best Building, Construction and Mining and Australia’s Best Manufacturing have both been recognised as the best magazine in the country in their prospective industries.

This was Bean Media’s first time at the Publishers Australia Excellence Awards and what an impact they have made. Chris Dutton, Managing Director at Bean Media expressed his joy on taking home these two prestigious awards. “It’s always nice to receive awards and praise, particularly from such a recognised association as Publishers Australia. The level of competition in the Excellence Awards 2010 was extremely high, and seeing as we only entered two magazines, for both to come out winners is a truly remarkable achievement.”

In such a short period of time Bean Media have become one of Australia’s leading publishing companies, producing a multi-award-winning series of business magazines.

The phenomenal success of Sydney-based Bean Media and the award-winning series Australia’s Best is truly an inspirational story. Over the past three years Bean Media have gone from strength to strength, with their top-quality publications demonstrating superior editorial and design work, combined with record-breaking readership figures. With ongoing support from leading industry associations Australia’s Best is truly getting the recognition it deserves.
