CONTAINER transport and logistics provider South East Queensland Hauliers (SEQH) has cut the ribbon on the first stage of its new logistics park at the Port of Brisbane.
The 2-hectare site is strategically located close to major port terminals, with space to expand, allowing for seamless operations and supporting SEQH’s next growth phase.
Delivered by the Port of Brisbane with principal contractor McNab, the facility comprises approximately 19,277m² of container hardstand, 40 reefer points, associated infrastructure and a bespoke office made of converted shipping containers.
A further 3.7 hectares of adjoining land will support additional hardstand expansion, a 6-bay drive-through workshop, biosecurity wash bay and more reefer points, with construction of the second stage expected to start in early 2026.
Port of Brisbane CEO Neil Stephens welcomed SEQH to the port community and congratulated all involved.
“We’re delighted to welcome SEQH to the Port of Brisbane as our newest customer, having shared a strong partnership for many years,” Mr Stephens said. “Together we’ve designed and delivered a custom logistics park that is both efficient and sustainable, with space to grow, that is bringing more jobs and economic activity to the port.”
SEQH deputy managing director Nathan Craner said the expansion into Fisherman Islands represents a significant milestone for the company.
“We are incredibly proud of the role SEQH plays in supporting shippers moving freight through the Port of Brisbane,” Mr Craner said.
“This next phase of growth will create valuable employment opportunities across both Brisbane and Toowoomba, strengthening our capability and the communities we operate in.”
In a win for environmental sustainability, all of the concrete used during construction of the logistics park was a reduced cement mix, and the majority of construction waste was recycled to help reduce the project’s carbon footprint.
