Jeremy Rockliff,Minister for Trade
The latest ABS export statistics have confirmed another record for Tasmania, with exports soaring to a record $4.6 billion for the 12-months to March 2022.
This is 24.5 per cent higher than the previous year and is the eighth consecutive month in which the rolling 12-month total has exceeded the $4 billion mark.
There is no doubt that Tasmania has what the world wants, and these great results are another testament to the strength and resilience of Tasmanian exporters that have come through the pandemic and are looking to the future with optimism.
Tasmania’s resources sector and sustainable primary industries continue to drive our goods exports, supporting local jobs and our regional economy – meaning more money into our economy to spend on the essential services Tasmanians expect, and deserve.
Through the Tasmanian Trade Strategy 2019-2025 we are committed to further empower businesses to enable them to open new markets and opportunities around the globe.
The Tasmanian Liberal Government is delivering for all Tasmanians, and the outstanding success of our exports sector is helping us to build a resilient and diverse economy to attract investment and create more jobs.
