On 22 May the American Chamber of Commerce in Kazakhstan held their annual dinner and awards ceremony in Almaty.

Kazanada attained three nominations for awards which in itself was an impressive achievement.

The first nomination was in the Woman's Leadership category and was for Botagoz Kaliyeva, Kazanada’s Corporate Manager.

The second nomination was for Kevin Freake, General Director of Kazanada and was for the Entrepreneurship Award. Kevin won this award which was a magnificent accomplishment for himself and for Kazanada.

Kazanada's third nomination was in the Community Service Award category for small to medium size companies and NGO's. Kazanada won the award which was a tribute to the work being carried out with the art school in Ekibastuz and assistance to children with HIV in Shymkent.
