Please register your interest in becoming a judge for Shop! ANZ's 2025 Retail Marketing Awards by filling out our online expression of interest survey here.
All category judging will be carried out online between Monday February 17 and Monday March 3, 2025. There will be no physical judging or exhibition in 2025.
2025 Judges will receive a 2025 Shop! ANZ Awards judge badge for use in their email signature, as well as acknowledgement in Shop! ANZ Awards materials and on the Shop! ANZ website.
More than 70 senior industry representatives judge the Shop! ANZ Awards each year. While judges must be a Shop! ANZ Member, Shop! does reserve the right to use a non-member as a judge to balance the judging teams as needed.
Applicants must have a minimum of five years of experience in retail marketing. For the judging process, judges are divided into teams with representation from all areas of the industry, including retailer, brand, POP, agency, and shopper insights.
The groups will be assigned to categories that do not conflict with their companies’ primary areas of business or with any entry assigned to them. No judge can judge a category their company is entered in. Current Shop! Board Members are not permitted to judge.
Key dates:
Online Judging Commences: Monday 17 February to 3rd March 2025
Online People's Choice online judging: 4 March to 11 March 2025
Online Pinnacle judging: 4 March to 11 March 2025
