We deliver. Goods and solutions.
We are a team of logistics professionals based in Auckland, New Zealand. We provide third party logistics (3PL or contract warehousing and distribution), freight forwarding and customs clearance. Our Warehouse Management System is specially developed for 3PL operations. We are supply chain partners, not just providers.
Logistics
We pick, pack and dispatch over 40,000 units of stock per day, from our modern and secure 15,000m2 facilities near Auckland airport. We are a well-established company and experienced providers of 3PL (third party logistics) services using sophisticated in-house systems. Read more...
Our unique warehouse management system provides the ability to track individual stock units from origin to final delivery to store. It is sophisticated, was sold internationally to other 3PL companies and was developed in-house by 3PL professionals over a period of twenty five years. We modify our systems for each client, so clients do not need to modify their systems.
We do not charge clients for our end of the systems integration costs
- it is what we do
We are neutral on the selection of couriers and make our bulk rates available to clients with no hidden mark-ups. Each order complies with strictly measured Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), using sophisticated systems developed and maintained in-house. The KPIs are reported live in our password-protected tracking website for any selected period. Register to see the our demonstrations.

EXW – Ex Works
Software
Trackstock, our Warehouse Management System (WMS), was first developed in 1996. It provides RF capability for scans and inventory location. We currently have over 4 million units of stock on hand. We do not charge clients for our end of the systems integration costs – it is what we do. Read more...
We use custom-written in-house software for our main applications, using Microsoft SQL Server as the back-end database. The database and the web server are hosted in the cloud.
We have used IT to our competitive advantage since we started in 1986. In the early 1990’s, we pioneered the use of EDI as a means of streamlining customs clearances in New Zealand for goods shipped from Australian retailers and manufacturers.
Because our software is written in-house, changes that are required for each client can be made quickly and efficiently. This provides the client with more flexibility. Our small – and highly responsive – team of five in-house programmers is supplemented by an external contractor responsible mainly for network architecture and security.
