The Economic Development Committee hosts an annual business luncheon where they present the Township of Elizabethtown-Kitley's Business of the Year Award.  The candidates for the award are nominated by members of the public in the months proceeding the business luncheon.  The award recognizes the great contributions local businesses have made in the community.

2019: The 25th Business of the Year award was presented in 2019 to two area businesses.  Maggio Flooring & Decorating Centre and Smiths Farm Equipment both received the award due to their longevity and involvement within the community.
