New Zealand Apples and Pears says trading with India is about getting money back in the pockets of growers.
Sign off on the Free Trade Agreement is still making its way through Parliament, but Prime Minister Christopher Luxon says exporters are already laying the groundwork.
India's grown from being our seventh largest market for apples, to the fourth – and the number of Indian tourists is also up.
Apples and Pears CEO Danielle Adsett told Mike Hosking it's important to start allocating some quota towards the Indian market.
She says exports have increased in anticipation of the agreement, and the industry is excited for the season ahead.
Adsett told Hosking the agreement's potential is untold, but growth should continue.
