Join the conversation and find the support you need in making your family business a success.
Established in 1986, the Family Enterprise of the Year Achievement Award (FEYA) is given annually by CAFE to recognize, celebrate and promote the achievements of Canadian family businesses and the considerable contribution they make to both their local communities and our national economy.
Each year three nominated finalists from across Canada are featured at a gala dinner during which they deliver a presentation about the history and success of their business family, followed by a presentation to the recipient. Prior recipients of this prestigious award award include both larger companies such as E.D. Smith & Sons Ltd. and Rogers Communications and smaller companies such as Beau’s All Natural Brewing Company and the Saskatoon Funeral Home. To nominate a worthy business family in your area please complete the FEYA Award Nomination or contact your local Chapter. If you are a business family considering applying, please review, complete and submit the following application to your local Chapter, 2013 CAFE FEYA Award Application.
