Famous Pacific Shipping is continuing to invest in the Australian market, with a new DC in Melbourne
Among recent developments is a multi-million dollar investment by Famous Pacific Shipping (Vic) Pty Ltd in a new, high-spec warehouse and office building in Melbourne, accompanied by the launch of a road haulage subsidiary.
The facility offers 484 m2 of office space and the 1200 m2 of warehousing is kitted out with the latest racking and storage equipment and there are 1600 m2 of hard-standing outside.
“Our customers will also benefit from the fact that the facility is fully Australian Customs bonded, which allows importers to obtain first-rate storage as they bring goods to this dynamic and attractive market,” said Sam Aparo, director of Famous Pacific Shipping (Vic) Pty Ltd.
The company has Customs Bond 77G for sea and air cargo. The facility is a Quarantine Class 1.3 premises and also an Australian Quarantine and Inspection Service (AQIS) Dairy Establishment. The site is also approved for FCL and LCL fumigation, a key requirement of entry for cargo into Australia.
“In Melbourne, we’ve launched FPS Transport as a separate haulage company to offer our own domestic collection and distribution service with a side-lift lorry [self-loading container trailer] and a taut-line for LCL shipments,” said Aparo.
