Trade
Fruit Growers Tasmania in conjunction with government and industry stakeholders developed the Tasmania's horticultural exports and domestic trade hub to support aspiring and existing fruit, nut and vegetable producers to explore export opportunities, develop export trade connections and make businesses ‘trade-ready’. The project ran from 2019–2022. Part of the project was to develop a website which promotes the horticultural products that Tasmania produces for national and international markets. This is the TASMANIANGROWN.AU website.
The four key areas of ongoing support for the Tasmanian fruit industry are:
-
Market Requirements
Support for growers with export training, navigating export compliance requirements, exploring key markets of interest.
-
Trade Information
These activities provide growers and exports with information on commodity and market trends to identify trends and opportunities.
-
Marketing & Promotion
These activities help growers develop contacts and linkages with buyers and importers in priority markets.
