About NZ - Industry












Industry

Of course, Agriculture is a major employer and generator of wealth in New Zealand.

The manufacturing sector is also growing with hi-technology as a corner stone.

Fishing the rich Pacific Ocean is also of ever increasing economic importance with much of the catch exported to the Asian market.

With so much to see and do in New Zealand, tourism is also a major source of income. Around 2M visitors per year come here.

Wairakei Geothermal Power Station

New Zealand's fast flowing rivers have been harnessed for the production of electricity - around 80% of our power generation is hydro-electric - the rest coming from gas, geothermal and wind power.
