Helping Aussie businesses be part of the export boom

Australian exports are booming under the tradeagreements the Coalition concluded with Japan, China and Korea.

The agreements have opened up export opportunities across theAustralian economy including in agriculture, in minerals and energy, and in awide range of manufactured products and services.

These landmark export agreements are creating more Australian jobsboth in our cities and in regional areas.

The Coalition launched a seminar program in 2015 that takes tradeexpertise directly to businesses across the country to help Australianbusinesses benefit from the preferential market access these dealsdeliver.

Today marked a milestone in the program with the 70th seminar heldat Brisbane City Hall.

The seminars provide information for businesses already exporting,or those looking to break into our lucrative export markets.

The Turnbull Government recognises the need to ensure allbusiness, including small and medium sized enterprises, understand theopportunities offered by these trade agreements and are provided the tools totranslate this knowledge into growth for their businesses and more Australianjobs.

The next round of seminars will be in Albury, NSW, and Wangaratta,Victoria, in mid-April.
