GEODIS to open new Brisbane facility


GEODIS has announced it will be opening a new warehouse facility at Brisbane Airport (BNE) this year.

From the facility, the logistics provider will provide airfreight, ocean freight, contract logistics and customs brokerage solutions for its customers in a wide range of market sectors, including automotive and FMCG.

Strategically located at Brisbane Airport, the new site will have easy access to key locations, being only 14km from the central business district, and 22km from the Port of Brisbane. It will serve the growing logistical needs of GEODIS’ customers.

The planned 4,500 sq m warehouse facility, which is due to be operational by second half of 2022, will feature 4,000 pallet locations, 1,500 sq m of bulk space, and a cool room for perishable goods supply to marine and hospitality logistics customers, especially cruise lines.

Stuart Asplet, GEODIS’ sub-regional managing director, Pacific regional director sea freight, Asia Pacific said: “At this new facility, GEODIS will showcase its expertise in import and export services including customs brokerage to ensure complete supply chain transparency.

GEODIS in Brisbane already has a strong package of solutions for our customers. This new, strategically positioned facility will not only enable us to meet the fast-changing needs of our customers today but will give us ample room to grow our offerings in the market.”
