Team Global Express and leading Chinese logistics provider, SF Express, have entered a partnership to drive increased bilateral trade, improve market access and deliver cost-of-living benefits for Australian consumers.
The partnership will enable customers to access integrated solutions that seamlessly combine Team Global Express’ multimodal network of rail, road, air and sea in Australia with SF Express’ technological capabilities and extensive aviation and road express network in China.
It will enhance cross-border trade opportunities – providing Australian businesses with faster and more efficient access to the world’s largest consumer market while offering Australian consumers greater choice and value.
Team Global Express Group CEO, Christine Holgate, said the partnership will strengthen the Australia-China trade lane and create new delivery opportunities.
“Australian businesses are in a prime position to benefit from China’s growing demand for high-quality goods and services,” she said.
“This partnership not only strengthens our economic ties with China but also brings tangible benefits to Australian consumers through greater access to affordable and diverse products.”
The collaboration offers business greater access to China’s vast market, at the same time as leveraging the advantages from the China-Australia Free Trade Agreement (ChAFTA) to enable local exporters to increase their market share in China by benefiting from reduced tariffs on critical export sectors, such as wine, beef and lithium.
As the demand for high-quality Australian products grows across various categories, food and perishable goods in particular are poised to benefit from the faster and more efficient multimodal transportation solutions that this partnership offers.
Australian companies – especially small and medium enterprises (SMEs) – will also now have more opportunities to engage with Chinese markets, driving innovation, creating jobs and boosting overall economic growth.
The partnership will also help Australian consumers by improving the speed, cost and reliability of imported goods.
With access to a broader range of products from China, Team Global Express claims that Australian shoppers can expect increased competition, potentially leading to lower prices on everyday goods.
“We are thrilled to partner with SF Express to enhance our international logistics capabilities and nurture the robust trading relationship between Australia and China,” Holgate said.
“Our collaboration will enable us to provide more efficient services to our customers, while fostering economic growth through integrated import and export solutions to our nation’s largest bilateral trading partner.
“By leveraging SF Express’ extensive infrastructure and expertise in China, we can better serve Australian businesses and consumers engaged in cross-border e-commerce.”
