We are Australian made
Linfox is an Australian-made business, proudly strengthening the economy and providing source to shelf distribution solutions for the businesses and brands that mean so much to the Australian community.
Prior to Australian Made Week 2025, Linfox announced it would receive Australia’s largest ever order of 30 electric heavy vehicles from Volvo, ten of which will be manufactured in Brisbane and will feature the iconic Australian Made label. This proud mark of authenticity shows our customers that we are committed to delivering the best for Australia.
This order of electric vehicles is just one way that Linfox spearheads sustainability advances and creates pathways across the industry to reduce carbon emissions.
We are a proud New Zealand business
Since Linfox commenced operations in New Zealand in 1989, we have invested in our valued partnerships and community connections that are only growing stronger.
The Linfox Board was warmly welcomed to New Zealand earlier this year with a traditional Pōwhiri ceremony. This proud display of Aotearoa culture emphasises our commitment to nurturing local relationships and building partnerships that benefit the New Zealand economy and create continued opportunities for team members to succeed at Linfox.
The strength of our presence in New Zealand is always underpinned by our commitment to deliver the best safety, security and sustainability outcomes.
Safe, secure, efficient and sustainable
Linfox’s impressive reach across Australia and New Zealand means we are uniquely placed to deliver for our community when hardship hits.
This year has seen particularly tumultuous fires, floods and cyclones which have impacted communities across Australia. Linfox is trusted by customers to provide essential transport and logistics services during these times to keep our communities supplied with food, fuel and grocery items.
Linfox is proud to have recently received the 5 Star Green Star Design and As Built certified rating for our 70,000 square metre BevChain site in Laverton, which opened last year.
Finally, happy 88th birthday to our Linfox Founder, Lindsay Fox AC. Almost seventy years on from our foundation, Linfox continues to show up for our communities and deliver the best for our customers.
Linfox’s long-term mindset has positioned us well to build a safe, secure, efficient and sustainable future. As we look forward to 2030, our new Driving to 30 strategy will ensure we continue to be safer, think customer, grow stronger, work smarter, act sustainably and achieve together.
