Christchurch is Stronger
Typically after large natural disasters
• GDP falls
• Population falls
• Unemployment rises
Our experience
• Current GDP growth = 4.6% (cf 2.5% for NZ)
• Census 2013 = regional population > pre-quake
• Unemployment Q4, 2014 = 3.4% (cf 5.7% for NZ)
• Labour force participation = 73% (cf 70% for NZ)
Christchurch has a strong economic base for recovery & renewal
What Are The Opportunities?
• Labour Supply
• Materials Supply
• Skills Supply
• New Products
• Contract Works
• JV & Partnering
• Establish Business
• Own Developments
Wider Public Sector Projects

•Collaboration with NZ businesses and/or agents
•Regular contact, good relationship management
•Normal business conventions apply
•Attention to detail in procurement processes
•Partnerships, must be on the ground
Key Messages

Suggested pathways and possible actions forward
Rebuild Overview
Public and Private works programs
Don’t overlook the sheer volume of private commercial
reconstruction still to be undertaken
Understand that there are over 1200 commercial buildings being
built over the next 5- 10 years of which in the vast majority will be
private builds
Consider the public works programs for both North and South
Islands
Rebuild Overview
Collaborate Canterbury, CECC, CDC
Connect with them
It’s about adding value
It’s about commitment
It’s about relationships most importantly
Rebuild Overview
Skills Shortfalls
Remembering with unemployment sitting around 3% skills
are in short supply
Immigration NZ is encouraging NZ expats to consider
returning to NZ
We encourage Australian companies to consider setting up
additional offices in NZ either Christchurch, but not negating
Wellington nor Auckland.
But consider labour rate variation between Australia and NZ.

Rebuild Overview
Suggested pathways and actions forward
Do your homework
You are involved directly, or part of the supply chain to any of the
considered shortfall or supply chain stress industries
You are looking at NZ as a secondary location anyway
You are a potential investor
But by all means take a visit to Christchurch to see it all with your
own eyes
Participate in trade missions / industry events
