About the TDN

More exporters into more markets

To deliver the Accessing New Markets Initiative (ANMI), a new Trade Diversification Network (TDN) has been set up. The network consists of 40 national peak industry bodies – representing Australian exporters. 

In collaboration with Austrade, the TDN builds on and leverages the capabilities of national peak industry bodies, working hand in hand with government for a unified national effort.

Trade diversification

Trade diversification will help more exporters enter more markets, and strengthen Australia’s long-term economic resilience. With Austrade, the TDN will design and jointly deliver activities that support Australian businesses. The goal is to help exporters succeed internationally by:

  • rapidly diversifying and growing into new export markets
  • capitalising on growth in existing markets.

Flexible, targeted support

The TDN's adaptive delivery model enables the program to readily respond to market conditions and shifting trade flow. This ensures support for Australian exporters is flexible and targeted.

By strengthening relationships with industry and government, the program will deliver enduring outcomes, by identifying strategies that best support exporters in the long term.
