The Org has released a breakdown of the Top 30 companies in Aotearoa by revenue, showing the broad range of high performing businesses throughout the country — from construction, to energy and mining, to healthcare innovation, New Zealand continues to mature as an international business hub.
At the top of the list, we can see the incumbent Fonterra maintaining the top position as Asian nations continue to import huge amounts of New Zealand’s coveted milk products — it’s joined in the top 30 by competitors a2 Milk and Synlait. With New Zealand’s $16B tourism sector taking a significant hit from the COVID fallout, companies like Tourism Holding Ltd, Air New Zealand, and Auckland Airports have looked vulnerable after years of strong performance. Read on to see the full list of The Org’s top 30 companies.
