Negotiations this week in Wellington are expected to further advance a free trade agreement (FTA) between New Zealand and the European Union (EU).

The EU’s proposed restrictions on the use of geographical names in products could have implications for NZ exports to other regions – including China, a trade expert says.

EU Agriculture Commissioner Phil Hogan is optimistic that a quality free trade agreement (FTA) between the EU and NZ can be negotiated before the end of 2019.

Dynamic gains in both the New Zealand and United Kingdom economies could be made if some trade barriers were freed up.

There is no good reason why New Zealand should not get a free trade agreement with the European Union (EU), says Trade Minister David Parker.

New Zealand can survive without the Trans Pacific Partnership (TPP) trade deal in the short term, says Wellington-based trade expert Charles Finny.

New Zealand needs to work hard on developing special trading relationships with Japan and Mexico, according to the Head of Global Agri for KPMG, Ian Proudfoot.

As New Zealand marks the one-year anniversary of its Free Trade Agreement (FTA) with South Korea, Fonterra is gearing up to take advantage of huge potential for its dairy products there, particularly cheese.

The start of 2017 saw two thirds of New Zealand’s exports to Korea become duty free, up from 46% in 2016.
