The World Freight Group (WFG) has recognised Australian import/export freight and customs clearance specialist, Wallace International by presenting the company with the award for Outstanding Services to the Group at the WFG annual conference held last month in Barcelona in Spain.
The award was collected by Wallace International representatives Brendan Gardiner and Phil Thomas at the conference. Heather Keith from Wallace International’s Sydney office was also nominated as Employee of the Year. The awards were voted on by over 400 WFG offices in 93 countries.
“The award was for service to the group, both for the quality of our people and services here in Australia and the opportunities we are creating for the other WFG members across the globe,” said Josh Mikkelsen, Wallace International’s Group Trade Development and Project Logistics Manager. “The award covers our entire operation and is something we are very proud of. In my mind, I believe that our services, facilities and people are seen as very valuable to the global group.”
In Australia, Wallace International has set itself apart by offering its clients an integrated solution to their import (and export) needs with wharf to door deliveries using its own fleet of specialised trucks and trailers.
The company is still owned by Bob Wallace who over the past 32 years has integrated the road transport operation into his customs and freight forwarding business. Wallace International now has more than 85 staff, and provides its clients with services that encompass everything from picking up the goods at an overseas location to delivering it right to the customer’s warehouse in Australia.
