PEN is pleased to announce its first ever Pacific trade mission to Vanuatu from 19 to 23 June. Travel will be over the weekends via Fiji to Port Vila. There is also a side visit planned to Santo.

The Mission has the support of HE Jimmy Nipo, the High Commissioner for Vanuatu, who is based in Wellington.

So far, we have 5 Wellington based Pacific exporters participating, but others are considering joining.

The Mission is being led by Colin Carr of Colin Carr Agencies. Colin is an experienced successful Pacific exporter of many years standing.

We also anticipate supporting hosted evening events where there will be opportunities to meet Vanuatu businesses and Government officials.

This is a genuine opportunity for Pacific exporters to expand their Pacific contacts and gain additional business opportunties in a country that has had many recent disasters but is already showing recovery in its tourism and business sectors.

If you wish to find out more, please email cbroad.pen@gmail.com

Further Pacific missions are likely should the Vanuatu Mission be a success.
