Shaping Modern Supply Chains to Build and Protect Australia’s Future

For 25 years, the Australian Logistics Council (ALC) has worked with governments at all levels to modernise Australia’s supply chains. Our mission is clear: to build supply chain productivity, resilience, sustainability and awareness across Australia.

As the peak national body, ALC represents more than 50 companies, including the most significant players in end-to-end supply chain:

Australia’s 3 major east coast container ports – handling 80% of all domestic import and export container freight.
Australia’s 3 main stevedores.
The biggest road and rail companies handling the freight task, including the national below-rail operator and intermodal terminals.
Australia’s most significant international airport.
The world’s largest freight forwarders, plus leading telematics, and mapping companies.
Major property developers, insurers, and technology companies.
Iconic businesses – Amazon, Woolworths, Coca-Cola, Coles, BlueScope, Australia Post, BP, CSR, Volvo and more.

Through relationships and strong advocacy, we amplify our members’ voices to influence Commonwealth, state and territory governments, as well as regulators, ensuring industry needs are recognised and acted upon in major investment, policy and regulatory decisions.

Our success is built on representative strength, and we are reshaping how Australia thinks about modern supply chains.

With the sector forecast to grow by 26% by 2050, ALC plays a crucial role in ensuring Australia’s economy is functioning at its best so freight dependent businesses and consumers have the goods and services they need - when they need them - and at a price they can afford.
