It's OK - they already know...

Partnering with European Union countries represents a huge opportunity for New Zealand exporters, opening up a market with a combined population of half a billion people who consume about 13 per cent of our overall exports.

Two-way trade between New Zealand and the EU (excluding the UK) is worth NZ$18 billion annually.

The EU is New Zealand's largest trading partner with which we do not yet have a free trade agreement.

For 2019, New Zealand annual goods exports to the EU were worth NZ$5.3 billion and services exports are worth NZ$3.7 billion (including the UK).

Our main goods exports to the EU are wine, fruit and meat.

Exports to the UK $1.6 billion Top exports: meat, beverages, fruit
NZ already exports more than twice as much to the EU (even if you take the UK figure out) than they do the UK (Goods exports to the EU NZ$5.3 billion minus goods exported to UK NZ$1.6 billion = NZ$3.7 billion)
