SYDNEY
Sydney, located in the state of New South Wales, is Australia’s business capital, largest city and number one investment destination. Its strong economy and relationships with the world’s fastest growing economies means that the city is a natural gateway to the dynamic Asian and Indo-Pacific markets.
International Trade
As a state, New South Wales has long been positioned as a net importer of goods but a net exporter of services. Despite that, the region is still home to a diverse export base of manufactured goods, natural resources and services. Representing about a third of Australia's manufacturing output, the region is transitioning towards increased investment in new technologies.
Logistics Infrastructure
Sydney's logistics infrastructure is a vital component of its economy, featuring major ports like Port Botany. Key road projects like WestConnex improve connectivity, reducing congestion, while Sydney's airports, including Kingsford Smith and the under-construction Western Sydney International, handle substantial passenger and cargo volumes. Investments in these infrastructures aim to boost capacity, reduce bottlenecks, and support continued economic growth, positioning Sydney as a key player in global trade.
