Buy NZ owned not made

The Greens look to be changing the “Buy NZ made” campaign into a “Buy NZ owned”. Yes, you can get your products made in an overseas sweatshop, but so long as the company selling them is NZ owned, this may now qualify.

Now personally I don’t care (as I think local manufacturers survive on the basis of their quality, not on the basis of patriotism), but for those who think the Greens were about promoting local manufacturing, they will be sorely disappointed.
