2020 ExportNZ and DHL Export Barometer
The Covid-19 pandemic has created an unsettling year for many Kiwi exporters, as results from the 2020 ExportNZ DHL Export Barometer show.
- The top barriers to doing business have changed substantially from previous years, with the costs of logistics and transport shooting into the top spot, followed closely by Covid-19 and the general costs of doing business.
- Exporters who saw an increase in their orders in 2020 predominantly increased their online presence.
- While the 2021 outlook remains positive, New Zealand businesses are rethinking their supply chain reliability and reducing their dependence on other markets by creating more products locally.
