This week, the Consulate General was pleased to facilitate a series of strategic meetings for the visiting team from the Vanuatu Chamber of Commerce and Industry (VCCI).

The programme formed part of a fact-finding visit to explore new and emerging export opportunities for Vanuatu products in the New Zealand market.

The delegation engaged in productive discussions with key partners including the MFATNZ Innovation Hub, New Zealand Pacific Business Council, Pacific Trade & Invest, and the Vanuatu Tourism Office New Zealand and the Consul General.

The visit also included valuable on-the-ground insights through site visits to ลŒtฤhuhu Town Centre, Farro Fresh, and the Auckland Museum Store.

These engagements provided important perspectives on retail positioning, consumer trends, and potential pathways for Vanuatu exporters to strengthen their presence in New Zealand.

We look forward to continued collaboration that supports trade growth and deepens economic ties between Vanuatu and Aotearoa New Zealand. ๐Ÿ‡ป๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿค๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡ฟ

Vanuatu Bislama Lanwis Wik - Celebrating Vanuatu Bislama Language Week ๐ŸŒบ

For the first time ever, Aotearoa New Zealand is officially celebrating Vanuatu Bislama Language Week. Bislama is a creole language that originated from English and various Melanesian languages, and it serves as a common language for many people in Vanuatu and is spoken widely, as well as French, English, and over 110 distinct dialects, making Vanuatu the most language-dense country per capita in the world.

Join us today from 10:30am for music, storytelling, and hands-on cultural fun as we honour this milestone with the Ni-Vanuatu community.
