Followmont Transport’s Townsville, Queensland, depot has undergone significant upgrades to accommodate future growth and enhance operational capabilities.
As part of the recent development, Followmont has added a 3,000-square-metre warehouse and a 1,500-square-metre all-weather breezeway to the site.
The upgrades, according to Followmont, demonstrate its commitment to growth and long-term sustainability in the region.
Followmont Transport Managing Director and CEO, Mark Tobin, said the expansion is crucial in supporting the business’ growth in Queensland and New South Wales as well as providing dedicated 3PL (Third-party logistics) storage.
“Our investment in Townsville reflects our long-term vision and commitment to providing our customers with unmatched service,” he said.
“This expansion, coupled with the purchase of 38 Everett Street, gives us the capacity we need to meet the demands of our customers while also contributing positively to the local community.”
The expansion aims to provide increased capacity for 3PL operations and customer storage needs, aligning with Followmont’s goal of creating a sustainable business.
“Our property strategy has always been a pillar of our success,” Tobin said.
“Working closely with Bootooloo Property has given us the flexibility to adapt and grow our business while maintaining control over our assets.”
The recent expansion – now fully operational – marks another significant milestone in Followmont’s ongoing investment in its property portfolio, further strengthening its ability to provide industry leading solutions across Queensland and NSW.
