“Australia is a market over five-times larger than New Zealand with an AUD$1.93billion domestic organic market. It is also a proven pathway to export growth for Kiwi brands. However, while Australians appreciate quality certified organic and natural products from New Zealand it should never be seen as an easy entry. We tend to describe it as a ‘knuckles and elbows’ market, if you are not fit you’ll get hurt.” Brendan Hoare, Managing Director of Buy Pure New Zealand said.

“Our get fit for training programme on 10 May in Auckland had fantastic support from leading New Zealand professional support services like ANZ, NZTE, James and Wells, Crombie Lockood and Baker Tilly, all who gave their time and expertise to provide critical insights on the preparedness required for successful entry.” Brendan Hoare said. “These professional services were supported by practitioners with direct experience like beverage stars Karma Cola and social media experts Moloney Moloney. They all believe in the mission, provided great insight and as a result we received a 100% approval rating from participants.”

While the New Zealand training is about preparedness, this is designed to give an insight into the behavior required to truly break into and win in the Australian Market. Getting to an export market is one thing, but staying-in and prospering requires commitment and a more in-depth insight and strategy.” Brendan Hoare said.
