Dear John,
Great news!
New Zealand has signed a landmark Free Trade Agreement with India, opening new opportunities for exporters and boosting long-term economic growth.
The deal removes or reduces tariffs on 95% of our exports – the highest access of any Indian FTA – and is a major win for sectors like apples, kiwifruit, and mānuka honey, giving them access to 1.4 billion consumers in one of the world’s fastest-growing economies.
Trade supports one in four New Zealand jobs. This agreement will create thousands of jobs and billions in new exports, helping double export value over 10 years.
National is fixing the basics and building the future.
