Nova Scotia’s Trade Market Series showcases global opportunities

The Nova Scotia Government’s new Trade Market Trading Card Series makes it easy to explore key facts, insights, and opportunities in trade partner countries for Nova Scotians. 

France 🇫🇷

France is the world’s 7th largest economy and one of our top trading partners in Europe. In 2024 alone, Nova Scotia exported over $79 million worth of goods to France from lobster and mollusks to tires and aircraft parts. We also imported more than $230 million in products like motor cars, wine, chocolate, and aircraft parts.

 As France invests in clean energy, aerospace, and oceantech, there’s real opportunity for Nova Scotian businesses to grow in this market.

Spain 🇪🇸 

In 2024, Nova Scotia’s trade with Spain totalled nearly $147 million, reflecting robust growth and opportunities, particularly in seafood, renewable energy, and agri-food sectors. 

Spain is one of the largest seafood markets in the EU, importing more than it exports, offering major opportunities for Nova Scotia’s world-class lobster, cod, and scallops. 

Denmark 🇩🇰 

Denmark is a global leader in renewable energy, making it a promising market for Nova Scotia’s clean tech companies. With a strong appetite for seafood and advanced pharmaceuticals, Denmark presents great opportunities for Nova Scotia exporters looking to expand.
