Wellington deal brings NZ produce to six Chinese supermarkets

An agreement earlier this year by a Wellington delegation to China led by Mayor Celia Wade-Brown has borne fruit with the launch of the Seashine Supermarket group’s first ‘New Zealand corner’. New Zealand products will be promoted in the supermarket chain across Xiamen and Fujian Province, occupying a prime position of 100 square metres in six stores to begin with. There is an expectation of more to come. Seashine Group is a major player in the economy of Xiamen, a sister city of Wellington.
