Logistics company Supply LINQ has opened its state-of-the-art $12 million facility in Lynbrook on the basis the Victorian Government will follow through on its promise to build an intermodal hub near Dandenong.
The Brumby Government’s is expected to announce the construction of an intermodal hub as part of the State’s transport plan to be released this month.
Strategic Advisor to the board at Supply LINQ John Edhouse says the warehouse represents the future in freight tracking technology.
“[The Lynbrook warehouse] is at the leading edge of systems capabilities in regards to moving stock,” he says.
Operations Manager Brian Dickson says tthe floor managers are contactable around the clock so clients can liaise with managers to track orders from shipping through to tracking the stock at its final destination.
