New Zealand has always thrived on ideas, hard work, and ambition. With our strong foundations and abundant resources, we have everything needed for a prosperous future.
Now is the time to seize the opportunity to unlock potential, drive economic growth and build a stronger economy which benefits everyone.
A growing economy means more money in people’s pockets, greater opportunities, and the ability to invest in high-quality schools, hospitals, and roads. That’s why we’re ‘Going for Growth’ to build a future where all New Zealanders can succeed.
The key to achieving this is saying YES – yes to ambition, yes to opportunity, and yes to economic growth.
We’re working on reforms which attract foreign investment, support key industries such as farming and tourism and remove barriers for businesses. By cutting red tape and reducing associated costs, we’re making it easier for businesses to grow, create jobs and lower everyday expenses.
Confidence in the farming sector is returning. We’ve streamlined regulations, accelerated innovation, and improved rural infrastructure. The latest Federated Farmers Farm Confidence Survey shows a 68-point surge in optimism – the largest since tracking began in 2016. This reflects renewed confidence in the sector and its future.
A stronger economy also means better education and training. We’re working to ensure people of all ages have access to skills and support for success. Whether starting out, changing careers, or upskilling, there are more opportunities than ever to grow.
We’re committed to delivering quality healthcare by investing in hospitals, recruiting more healthcare professionals, and improving access to essential services.
We’re expanding global trade and securing more Free Trade Agreements, unlocking new markets, raising wages, and strengthening the economy.
At the heart of ‘Going for Growth’ is investment in essential infrastructure – housing, energy, transport, and healthcare. These investments will make our communities more connected, support economic growth, and ensure New Zealand remains a great place to live, work, and retire.
No matter your stage of life, these efforts are about building a stronger, more prosperous New Zealand. Now is the time to move forward together.
