New Zealand and United States business ties
As the largest economy on earth, the United States is a key source of commercial partnerships for New Zealand, and we share a long and trusted history of trade and investment for the benefit of both countries.
Two-way trade between the United States and New Zealand reached NZ$17.8 billion in 2018, including NZ$8.5 billion of New Zealand goods and services exports to US customers.
The United States is also New Zealand’s third-largest source of imports, and our second-largest destination for investment.
The United States is an extremely important market for New Zealand businesses in food and beverage (including meat, dairy and wine), manufacturing, and infrastructure.
​
It’s also a natural location for New Zealand businesses seeking to take technology of all kinds to the world – from agritech and healthcare to software as a service (SaaS) and other digital products and services.
