The SADC Quality Awards recognize companies and individuals from SADC Member States who demonstrate excellence in quality advancement and compliance with international standards.

The SADC Quality Awards were established in 2009 by the SADC Committee of Ministers of Trade to promote the adoption and implementation of international standards among public and private entities in the Southern African Development Community region. The awards aim to foster a culture of quality and excellence, encouraging organizations and individuals to integrate robust measurement and quality systems that align with local, regional, and international best practices.

The competition features five categories: Company of the Year (for both Large Enterprises and Small and Medium Enterprises), Product of the Year, Service of the Year, Exporter of the Year, and Individual of the Year. These categories recognize outstanding achievements in quality management, product and service excellence, export growth through quality, and individual contributions to standards, quality assurance, accreditation, and metrology within the SADC region.

Eligibility is limited to companies and individuals from SADC Member States who have won their respective national Quality Award competitions in 2026 and are recognized as national winners in the category for which they are applying at the regional level. Only entries submitted electronically by the National Quality Awards Focal Points will be considered for the regional competition.
