In 2004, Shan founded Cross Docks Australia after many years experience in the freight and logistics industry. This year we celebrate 20 years of success in business! In two decades Cross Docks has transformed from a small start-up with just one employee and two investors, to a thriving business which today turns over in excess of $10m. This sustainable growth belies the incredible value we have created for our clients.
Our clients range from global, household names to local boutique enterprises, from shoe retailers to children’s prams but what they all have in common is an understanding of how transformative it can be to have someone managing the movement of your stock. Shan has strategically chosen clients to whom he can provide the highest standard of service and who see working with Cross Docks as a partnership. He always puts his feet firmly in the shoes of his customers.
Operating a business over a period of steady growth has seen Shan’s role develop from managing the entire operation to now investing in highly skilled operation managers where he can delegate and mentor. Shan has created a strong, experienced and positive workplace by investing in staff development and leadership training programs.
Shan is never afraid to do things differently and this attitude is paramount to the service his clients experience.
