Spain country brief
Spain's economy is the ninth biggest in the world. Although farming and agriculture continue to be important, manufacturing (motor vehicles, pharmaceuticals, technology and telecommunications) and services (tourism and construction) are its pillars.
It is a sophisticated and diverse market with opportunities for almost any product already selling well in other European Union (EU) nations.
Seafood, kiwifruit, and sheep meat are New Zealand’s main exports. Recent growth areas have been in electrical machinery, ships and boats, plastic products and vehicle parts and accessories.
