Starting with only $7,000 and a truck 43 years ago, Mainfreight has grown from humble beginnings in New Zealand to being a true global supply chain provider, with 297 branches across 26 countries operating within our three core business units: domestic road transportation, warehousing and international freight forwarding.

Since the very start, Mainfreight has always believed that it is our people and our unique culture that separates us from our competitors.

Our company is built on our Three Pillars – Culture, Family, and Philosophy. These core values have shaped our people and our company.

We promote our people from within, and encourage innovative, non-hierarchical and decisive outlooks. Like a family we eat together at mealtimes and we support each other through successes and failures.

At the same time, we are focused on performance – every branch reports weekly results that are available for all team members to see. Individual responsibility and accountability for quality are reinforced. All Mainfreight branches have quality boards and are internally audited every six months.

Our unwavering focus on culture, values and care for one another, makes Mainfreight a team we are proud to be a part of.
