Tridge summary

Taiwanese pineapples have recently been approved for import by New Zealand, a significant milestone achieved after nearly eight years of effort, making them the second Taiwanese fresh fruit to enter the New Zealand market following lychees and mangoes. This development is part of the Taiwan-New Zealand Economic Cooperation Agreement (ANZTEC) signed in 2013, allowing tariff-free exports of Taiwanese pineapples to New Zealand. Following the successful export of pineapples, there is potential for guava to become the next Taiwanese fruit to be exported to New Zealand. Guava, previously exported mainly to Canada and recently to the United States, is seen as a strategic move to diversify and strengthen agricultural trade relations between Taiwan and New Zealand, with the Inspectorate of Public Security highlighting it as the next fruit expected to be discussed for export to New Zealand.
