Our History Timeline

Driving North Queensland’s Logistics
Legacy Since 1975

1995
Introduced
Founded a softdrink manufacturing company

In 1975 Alan Rockley founded a softdrink manufacturing company servicing the Atherton Tablelands. From this grew a business that is today at the forefront of the logistics industry in North Queensland.

1980
Expanded
Association with Coca-Cola products

Our reputation for customer service was the basis for the establishment of an association with Coca-Cola products in 1980. With a change of name to Tablelands Cordials, we ceased our manufacturing operations and began our evolution into a dynamic distribution business.

1991
Expanded
Queensland Railfast Express (QRX)

In 1991 control of the business was passed from Alan Rockley to his son, Neal. Following an approach from the Queensland Railfast Express (QRX) in 1991, our operations expanded into rail freight forwarding.

1997
Sub Label
QRX's sole agency on the Atherton Tablelands

By 1997, our growing presence in North Queensland enabled us to secure QRX's sole agency on the Atherton Tablelands.
