Turns out logistics is mostly moving heavy things, putting out fires and explaining why the plan changed. 😅

Happy Labor Day to the team who somehow makes it all work.

There’s still a lot to be said for doing business the old-school way: showing up, having the conversation and building the relationship.

At this year’s ANZSL Conference, Gerald Lowe, Brock Dodd and Richard Marquez shared how AWA is Simplifying the USA for Australian and New Zealand forwarders, backed by the kind of hands-on service that starts with knowing the people you’re working with.

Freight may cross a whole country, but good business still starts with a conversation.

Your cargo should not have to wait around for enough freight to make treatment worthwhile.

With AWA’s on-site heat-treatment facilities, your cargo benefits from:
- Less dependence on third-party treatment schedules
- Fewer transfers between separate facilities
- Better control over loading and departure timing

BMSB season may be complex, but your shipping plans do not have to be.

Choose AWA and move into the season with more control, fewer delays, and the confidence that your cargo is already one step closer to its destination.

Sydney treated us pretty well! 🇦🇺

A big thank you to Freight & Trade Alliance (FTA) for a great ANZSL Conference. The panel discussions were a real highlight, and the gala dinner at NSW Parliament House was a great way to wrap up Thursday.

It was great catching up with customers, partners and industry experts over the two days.

🚨 Have You Heard About the Upcoming Changes to U.S. Imports? 🚨

Executive Order 14411 is set to change the way imports to the U.S. are handled, with more focus on compliance, importer responsibilities and customs procedures.

This is worth paying attention to if you’re moving freight into the United States.

If you haven’t reviewed it yet, take a look at the Executive Order here:

Be sure to stay informed as additional guidance is released, so these changes don’t catch your supply chain off guard.

This month, Graham Burford visited South Africa to connect with key partners and clients across the region.

The visit included a great evening catching up with Jay Cameron from Aero Africa, along with productive meetings with VDM Cargo Solutions and other local customers.

Face-to-face conversations create valuable opportunities to exchange ideas, better understand our partners’ needs, and strengthen the relationships that support our global network.

Strong partnerships are built through time spent together. Thank you to everyone who made the visit such a worthwhile one.

BMSB season is nearly here, but your cargo should not have to sit around waiting for the right treatment batch.

By keeping heat treatment within the same warehouse operation, AWA helps eligible cargo move from processing to treatment to loading without the usual detour. Treated and untreated cargo can also move within the same consolidation plan, helping protect the schedule and keep things moving.

Plan ahead with AWA and keep BMSB season from slowing your cargo down.

Modern businesses are no longer defined by a single office or location. They are built through people, expertise and collaboration across countries and time zones.

At AWA, we believe that geographical distance should never mean disconnection. We work hard to ensure that everyone supporting our operation feels connected to our mission, values and wider team.

That spirit was recently reflected in Colombia, where the team surprised Ruben Medina with a birthday cake and a round of “Happy Birthday.” 🎉

A special thank you to T’ona for helping coordinate the celebration during her visit, and to the Colombia team for the thoughtful goodies they shared with our team in the United States.

Our people and partners are central to everything we do, and moments like these help strengthen the relationships that bring our global network together.

Happy birthday, Ruben! 🎂
