Thank you for the opportunity to speak about the importance of the food industry to Christchurch and indeed the wider Canterbury region.
Obviously when we are talking about food, there are significant opportunities. I often make
the point that if you were looking at the region's economy you could be mistaken for not
thinking there had been a series of earthquakes. Our region's economy did not really miss a
beat such is the strength of the agricultural sector.
