Picturesque Christchurch, known as The Garden City, is New Zealand’s second-largest city, and the largest on the South Island, with a permanent population of 348, 400 and many thousands of visitors each year. The pro-active Christchurch City Council, winner of both National and International awards as an outstanding local authority, and the Canterbury Development Corporation (CDC - Christchurch's economic development agency) are dedicated to providing excellent quality of life and a globally-connected, world-leading regional economy.

Nestled on the east coast below the Cashmere Hills and Mount Cavendish and a jumping-off point for visitors to the Southern Alps and the Canterbury region, Christchurch and surrounds offer everything from skiing, white-water-rafting, golf, and bungy-jumping to windsurfing and dolphin or whale-watching, as well as the chance to enjoy world-class wineries and gardens. The city itself is also famous for its namesake, the Christchurch Cathedral, historic trams, arts and cultural centres, and beautiful Hagley Park and the Botanic Gardens. Enjoying a leisurely punt along the tree-lined Avon River is a popular summer past-time, as is shopping at local markets and taking part in the many festivals and events on offer. Al fresco wining and dining in the many local cafes and restaurants is also a must, as the nearby farmlands of Canterbury plains and pristine ocean waters offer up a host of award-winning local produce such as Waipara wines, Canterbury lamb, Akaroa salmon and Kaikoura crayfish.

Just three hours by air from Australia, Christchurch is extremely popular as a tourist destination, and as a National and International conference and convention venue. It is also a major distribution and export centre, with an international airport, proximity to the deep Harbour Port at Lyttelton, and road and rail network links. Its official status as Gateway to the Antarctic brings both international recognition and tangible economic benefits. Two Universities and sixteen research institutions within the region employ a large number of highly-educated workers.

In addition to traditional industries such as dairy, wool, timber and Horticulture/Viticulture, the region’s key economic sectors now include communications and IT / software development, niche manufacturing, light engineering, food processing, agri-business and biotechnology, tourism, retail and hospitality.
