Häufige Fragen
Are there major differences between New Zealand and Australia?
Yes. New Zealand is smaller, more environmentally conscious, and has stronger Māori cultural influence. Shipping costs are even higher, and consumers are more laid-back but equally price-sensitive.
What e-commerce platforms are popular in New Zealand?
Trade Me is the local marketplace giant. Amazon is growing but less dominant. TheMarket, Mighty Ape, and Fishpond are popular. Many shop directly from Australian sites.
How important is Māori culture in business?
Increasingly important. Incorporating te reo Māori (Māori language) and respecting Māori cultural protocols shows cultural awareness and builds goodwill, especially in government and community sectors.
