ABOUT – Tony Valder
Tony Valder is the Director of Tasman Export Solutions. Tony grew up in Tauranga (Bay of
Plenty, NZ) and has witnessed the city’s transformation into one of New Zealand’s largest
urban centres. Notably, Tauranga has evolved into the country’s premier export port for
containers. It is an international freight gateway for the country’s imports and exports, and
the only New Zealand port able to accommodate the largest container vessels to visit here.
After earning a Business Management and Marketing (BCom) degree from Otago University
in 2003, Tony returned to Tauranga to embark on a career in meat trading.
With over two decades of experience in international business trading, Tony has cultivated a
deep expertise in the field. In 2018, he leveraged this extensive background to establish
Tasman Export Solutions, where he currently serves as Director.
