Agrobank today celebrated the winners of Agro Biz Awards 2025 in a prestigious recognition ceremony honouring outstanding agropreneurs from across Malaysia. The awards acknowledge exceptional achievements in advancing the agri-food sector while supporting the nation’s aspirations for sustainable, high-impact agriculture.

A National Platform Recognising Agro Excellence

Agro Biz Awards 2025 was specially designed to recognise excellence across diverse segments of the agricultural sector. The awards featured five main categories: Agrobank SME of the Year, Agrobank Biz Women Award, Agrobank Biz Youth Award, Agrobank Biz Innovation Award, and Agrobank Biz Disability Empowerment Award. Together, these categories reflect Agrobank’s inclusive approach to recognising excellence regardless of background, scale, or business focus.

Celebrating Inclusivity, Innovation and Impact

Speaking at the event, Agrobank’s President and Group Chief Executive Officer said the bank was proud to organise the prestigious awards as a national-level recognition platform. He highlighted that the strong response to Agro Biz Awards 2025 reflects the high level of commitment among agropreneurs in strengthening the agri-food ecosystem and national food security agenda. To honour their dedication and achievements, Agrobank awarded a total prize pool of RM70,000 to the winners.

Empowering Women, Youth and Persons with Disabilities

The award categories were intentionally structured to be inclusive, featuring dedicated recognition for women, youth, and persons with disabilities (PWDs). This approach aligns with Agrobank’s principle of leaving no one behind, acknowledging that every individual has the potential to contribute meaningfully to the agri-food sector. The introduction of the Innovation Award further encourages creative, technology-driven, and forward-looking solutions that enhance productivity and competitiveness.
