Overview

Portrade is about many things. Like any international business chamber it seeks to promote cultural and social interaction between countries and amongst the expat or heritage based communities. That interaction creates understanding and communication which is the secret to all successful business activity. And business activity is what we are about. Both Portugal and Australia of necessity are export driven economies. Economies which Portrade thinks do not compete with but in fact complement each other. Portuguese products and services have much to offer the Australian market. Motor vehicles, cork, wine, food products, textiles, water products, home wares, linen and haberdashery, and of course tourism are all consumables that Australians will embrace with the right marketing and government support. These are all consumables that Portugal can offer at competitive prices and quality. We cannot do it all. We will however lay the groundwork to raise awareness of Brand Portugal. We will also establish a network of government and business contacts which can clear the way for Portuguese businesses wishing to trade with Australia. So if you are an Australian company wanting to know more about Portuguese products let us know and we will put you in touch with the right people. And if you are a Portuguese company with goods and services to sell have a look at Australia. There is a market waiting for you. If you need more information about doing business in Australia with Portuguese companies give us a call. We hope you enjoy our website and visit us often.
