Published 1 month, 3 weeks ago
Description
New Zealand’s export boom is accelerating.
New international trade figures show exports climbed to 29.2 billion dollars in the December quarter - up 2.2 billion on a year earlier.
Two-way trade also jumped to just over 61 billion.
Trade Minister Todd McClay told Ryan Bridge dairy is performing strongly, with meat exports up a remarkable 21 percent.
He says growth has soared with countries we have free trade agreements with - like the EU, UK and Australia.
