What manufacturing in New Zealand offers
Manufacturing in a small country at the bottom of the world is a good thing. It means we’ve become skilled at being:
- flexible
- responsive
- creative
- innovative.
Manufacturing in New Zealand offers:
- local suppliers to meet your needs, especially if you’re developing innovative products or you’re a research and development centre
- easy connections with a network of suppliers and expert help
- opportunities to learn and have your say on policy – the manufacturing industry is well connected to local and central government.
Being self-sufficient
Relying on overseas suppliers and products can be risky. There are many factors that can cause delays or price increases – such as bad weather, natural disasters, distant wars or pandemics.
Manufacturing domestically makes us more resilient and less reliant on the rest of the world.
