Centurion has secured a contract with Australia Post to manage freight delivery across three key regions of Western Australia.
The deal is for five years and applies to regional centres in the Central, Goldfields and North West areas of the state.
Centurion, per the agreement, will transport parcels and mailbags between Perth and post offices in Kalgoorlie, Karratha, Geraldton, Port Hedland, Broome and Kununurra.
Centurion has been servicing regional Western Australia for more than 50 years.
Through its extensive network, along with its established infrastructure and transport capability, it was considered well-aligned with the needs of the contract.
“This agreement reflects Centurion’s commitment to supporting essential freight movements across regional Western Australia,” said Centurion EGM of Business Development, Damain Bishop.
“It highlights the strength of our network and our capability to service some of the most remote communities in the country.”
By consolidating mail and parcel deliveries into Centurion’s existing transport runs, the partnership reportedly delivers an efficient and consistent service for local communities.
“Our roots are in regional WA. We’ve built our network over five decades to deliver safely, reliably, and regularly to even the most remote parts of the state,” said Centurion CEO Justin Cardaci.
“Working with Australia Post is a great fit because it allows us to continue doing what we do best—serving regional communities.”
Under the agreement, Centurion is providing direct deliveries to regional post offices and handling returns to Perth from regional towns.
Though this is the first time it has been made public, the contract officially commenced in mid-March according to Centurion.
The company has, furthermore, shown strong delivery performance, receiving positive feedback from both operational and retail teams at Australia Post.
“Centurion’s experience in regional transport in WA was a significant advantage when we worked through the selection process,” said Rod Barnes, Executive General Manager Network Operations – Australia Post.
“Their teams understand the demands of remote delivery and have already demonstrated they can deliver with care and consistency, providing our customers and communities with a reliable service.”
The contract reflects a shared commitment to maintaining reliable, high-quality delivery services in even the most remote parts of the state.
