“We understand that around the Pacific region there are varying degrees of managed responses to COVID-19. Thanks to our preparedness during the last lockdown, Pacific Trade Invest New Zealand is able to continue to work on at full staff capacity although travel restrictions across Auckland will require a certain level of adaptation in how we interact with our NZ clients,” she says.
Acting Trade Commissioner Miller urges companies in the Pacific Islands to get in contact if they need any assistance during this time.
“We will follow the lead of our host Government; however, we remain available and committed to our remit of promoting trade and investment for the Pacific.”
