The target cities are Sydney and Melbourne however flexibility allows for companies that have interests in other cities or regions.

Meeting face-to-face with prospective customers and partners is crucial to establishing business relationships in this region. We can help you meet your business objectives by designing an itinerary tailored to your company’s individual needs.

As a mission participant, you will receive:

•A tailored market assessment summarizing the market landscape in Australia / New Zealand for your product or service.
•Pre-arranged, one-on-one business appointments with pre-qualified potential customers or partners.

Why Australia and New Zealand?​
  • Australia (and New Zealand) is a major export market for the US, and Pennsylvania in particular. In 2020, total merchandise exports from Pennsylvania to Australia and New Zealand (ANZ) was worth ~US$670.2 million.
  • Key exports from Pennsylvania to Australia include machinery, chemicals, transportation equipment, electrical products, manufactured food products etc.
  • Based on our 20+ years’ experience assisting Pennsylvania in this region, we believe there is opportunity in the market across a wide range of sectors, including but not limited to mining equipment, medical devices & consumables, food & beverage, SaaS, water & wastewater equipment, construction & manufacturing equipment, consumer retail etc.
