TRADE DEVELOPMENT
OPPORTUNITIES IN NEW ZEALAND. BRITISHERS SHOULD STUDY DOMINION’S NEEDS. Sir Archibald Boyd-Carpenter, who had just returned to London with other delegates from a tour through Australia and New Zealand on behalf of lhe British motor industry, in a “Daily News’’ interview', said: “While Australia imports 98,000 motors a year, only 16 per cent, of these are British. What a field for trade development. “Plenty of young men should be needed, men who are live wires, who will visit these great potential markets. I think, too, that there might be an interchange of our young men from England, Australia, and New Zealand, so that each might learn the needs and conditions of the different countries. “One of the things that has impressed me as a result of our tour is that the Dominions are of opinion that there are not a sufficient number of English traders who will trouble to go out there and find things out for themselves. We were told repeatedly at conferences and meetings that we were the first specific trade delegation that had ever visited Australia and New Zealand. “The market is there. Of that there is no doubt, and it is up to us to take advantage of it.”
