Wallenius Wilhelmsen has secured a major logistics contract in Australia with a leading automotive manufacturer, a deal expected to generate more than $100 million in revenues.
Under the three-plus-one-year agreement, the Oslo-listed RoRo and logistics group will provide vehicle processing services across Melbourne, Brisbane, and Perth.
Pia Synnerman, Chief Commercial Officer at Wallenius Wilhelmsen, said the partnership would give the customer “better oversight of its logistics” while reinforcing the group’s own growth ambitions in Oceania.
The deal comes as the company continues to strengthen its footprint in the region through integrated shipping and land-based logistics services. Earlier this year, Wallenius Wilhelmsen sold its stake in Melbourne International RoRo & Auto Terminal (MIRRAT) to Australian Amalgamated Terminals, a subsidiary of logistics giant Qube. Despite the divestment, the company confirmed it will continue to use the terminal for its operations.
The latest agreement underscores Wallenius Wilhelmsen’s strategy to expand its role as a comprehensive logistics provider in Oceania, a market of growing importance for global automotive supply chains.
