With a shared culture, stable economy, and 24 million English-speaking citizens, Australia is one of America’s strongest trade partners. There are many lucrative business opportunities in Australia thanks to the Australia-U.S. Free Trade Agreement, which allows for 99% of U.S.-made goods to enter the country duty-free. In addition to its openness to trade, its geographic location makes it a logical springboard into other nearby markets like New Zealand, Fiji, and Papua New Guinea.
