As Australian agriculture evolves, so too does the way our food moves across borders. A growing number of producers—particularly in high-value categories like berries, dairy, meat and leafy greens—are embracing a ‘farm-to-export’ model, bypassing traditional wholesale and distribution channels to ship directly to international buyers.
It’s a shift driven by better margins, improved market access, and stronger relationships with overseas partners. But it also places greater pressure on cold logistics than ever before.
Where once a domestic wholesaler might receive, store, and distribute a product locally, today’s producers are relying on tightly managed cool chains that stretch from rural farm gates to distant seaports—often across long distances and multiple handover points.
This is where ACIT steps in.
With a presence across all Australian states, and growing logistics support in New Zealand and Hawaii, ACIT is uniquely positioned to manage export-grade cold chains with confidence. Our team coordinates the transition from local packhouses through to container consolidation, export documentation, and temperature-verified delivery to port—ensuring quality stays intact and shelf life is maximised.
In 2025, speed, precision and accountability are no longer optional. They’re the backbone of any direct-to-export strategy. That’s why more producers are turning to trusted logistics partners who understand both the supply chain intricacies and the expectations of international markets.
If you’re looking to take your harvest global, ACIT is ready to deliver.
