The Australian branch of packaging provider Multivac has expanded its sales and logistics capacity by leasing a complex in Queensland.
The Yatala Building is located near the M1 motorway and is 2km from the company’s previous location.
The 1,200m² facility offers three times as much space as the previous complex and features offices and production workspaces equipped with advanced amenities.
Its storage capacity has been expanded from 93 to 520 pallet places, allowing it to stock packaging machines, spare parts and a wide range of films and other packaging materials.
Multivac Australia managing director Andrew Hutchison said: “Here we are in the heartland of Australian cattle farming and beef processing. That means for us a quick route to our most important customers.
“We service a huge area with a total length of around 2,000km. In addition to this, we also serve customers in the Northern Territory, a fairly sparsely populated region of the country.
