Our Export Industries
Food & Produce
The Northern Rivers has a reputation for high quality, clean and sustainable food and beverage industry due to the exceptional quality of our produce.
In export markets, this is reflected in the overseas demand for our meat, dairy, blueberries and nuts.
With a growing boutique food business industry in our region, opportunities for gourmet food products continue in export markets to grow.
Screen Industries
Our region is home to many highly skilled screen practitioners. Covering all aspects of the industry, our region is host to international screen products including special effects, fantastic locations and more.
Information and Resources for Exporters
Australian and NSW Government
Both the Australian and NSW governments provide advice and support to businesses that are currently or considering exporting.
Coaching with NSW Government export advisers

The Going Global Export Program provides free support to expand to new international markets. Participants will have access to:
- online workshops, market intelligence briefings, cultural training
- potential partner introductions and business matching
- market visits programs, in-market assistance and logistical support
- coaching from a dedicated Export Adviser from Investment NSW
