MAD ON MANUFACTURING

Working with your pair school, identify a local resource e.g. coal, mineral water, grass, apples, sand etc. Compare each other's lists and decide on at least two resources, one from each country, that you can combine to make a new product.

This one is a bit hard to explain, so I will give you an example:-

NZ kiwi fruit + British spring water = Bottled kiwi fruit mineral water health drinks

Get the idea?

Your new product will be exported to America, so design packaging and a marketing campaign that reflects both NZ and Britain, but that will also appeal to the American consumer.
