One of Australia’s largest privately owned container logistics operators, ACFS Port Logistics, has entered external administration, just one day before a Federal Court hearing over a reported $60 million tax debt.

Specialist lender ScotPac appointed Salea Advisory as administrator on 6 August, despite ACFS stating days earlier that it had arrangements in place to repay its ATO debt in full.

The company reported revenue of around $479 million for FY2024 but recorded a $26.7 million net loss. Its FY2025 accounts have not yet been filed.

ACFS employs more than 1,500 people and operates over 300 trucks and 1,200 trailers, moving more than 850,000 TEU annually across Australia and New Zealand.

The company services major retailers including Coles, Bunnings and Kmart. There is currently no public confirmation that customer services have been disrupted.

From 3 August, fuel excise and the Heavy Vehicle Road User Charge both increase by 16 cents per litre. While the fuel tax credit remains unchanged at around 20.2 cents, the full 16-cent increase becomes a real addition to heavy vehicle operating costs.

With diesel prices already above $2/L amid global supply disruptions, the pressure on freight costs and margins is intensifying.

For supply chain leaders, the priority is action:

• Review fuel recovery mechanisms and contractual arrangements
• Check obligations under the Road Transport Contractual Chain Order
• Model the impact on cost-to-serve and network costs
• Prepare repricing communications and scenarios
• Seek advice on whether existing fuel levies meet current requirements

The key lesson? Don’t wait for costs to rise before checking whether your contracts are designed to recover them.

Two drones were spotted flying over a German military base, just two days after a drone carrying explosives was discovered at Leipzig/Halle Airport, a major cargo hub supporting NATO operations.

The drones were detected over the Bundeswehr base in Mechernich on Thursday night, prompting military police to deploy and an investigation by local police.

The airport incident has heightened concerns over drone activity around critical infrastructure. The explosive-carrying drone was safely defused, but Germany’s interior minister described the incident as a “new quality of danger.”

Leipzig/Halle plays a key role in international freight and NATO logistics, including transporting equipment to alliance forces along Europe’s eastern flank.

Dear Valued Clients,

It is with great sadness that we share the passing of our beloved mum, Linda Egan.

While many of you may not have known her personally, she was a kind, gentle and caring person whose greatest joy in life was her family – her children and grandchildren. She will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her.

As we come together to celebrate her life and say our final farewell, Team Express will be closed on Wednesday, 29 July to allow our family to attend her funeral.

We appreciate your understanding during this difficult time. Thank you for your kindness, patience and support.

Kind regards,
Brent, Shelley and the Team Express Family

Australia’s rapid data centre growth is driving investment but also raising important questions about the future of industrial land.

Industry leaders, Transport for NSW and the Australasian Supply Chain and Logistics Association (ASCLA) are highlighting the need to protect strategically located land for freight and logistics, ensuring distribution centres remain close to the communities they serve.

The solution is not choosing between digital infrastructure and logistics, but delivering smarter planning that supports both. Coordinated land use planning will be critical to strengthening supply chain resilience, supporting economic growth and meeting Australia’s future infrastructure needs.

Global shipping costs are set to increase, with the Suez Canal Authority announcing a 12% rise in existing surcharges on transit dues for most vessels from 15 July.

The adjustment will impact a range of vessel types, including container ships, tankers and bulk carriers, adding further pressure across international supply chains.

The International Chamber of Shipping is seeking greater transparency around the increase, including the rationale, methodology and consultation process.

As global trade continues to face cost and capacity pressures, proactive planning and supply chain resilience will remain critical for logistics operators.

The CLOCS-A accreditation program has received the Heavy Vehicle Safety Award at the 15th Australian Road Safety Awards, recognising its contribution to safer construction logistics operations.

As Australia’s only independently governed construction logistics safety standard, CLOCS-A is helping raise industry benchmarks for safety, sustainability and professionalism. Developed through collaboration across the sector, the program supports stronger compliance, improved operational practices and reduced transport risk around construction projects.

The recognition reinforces the importance of industry-led initiatives that protect road users and drive safer logistics outcomes.

Australia has taken the first step towards establishing a strategic fleet of Australian-flagged and crewed vessels, aimed at strengthening the nation's ability to respond to supply chain disruptions, natural disasters and other emergencies.

With around 99% of Australia's trade moving by sea and the number of Australian-flagged merchant ships having fallen dramatically over recent decades, concerns have grown about the country's reliance on foreign-owned vessels during times of crisis.

Supporters argue the initiative will improve supply chain resilience, maritime capability and national security, while critics question its long-term economic viability. Either way, the move has reignited discussion about Australia's shipping sovereignty and preparedness in an increasingly uncertain global environment.
