Economy

An example of trade would have to be when you exchange food with somebody else to benefit the both of you.

NZ Export Product
In term 4 we studied a NZ Export product, the product in which I chose to research about was alcohol and the NZ company I studied was Liquorland. I found out how much the shipping costs were from one country to another, the retail price for the products in different countries and Japan has the most expensive alcohol in the world. To date there are 300+ Liquorland stores in NZ.
