DHL Supply Chain Australia (DHL) has officially opened its newest warehouse facility in Erskine Park, New South Wales.
The opening marks a major milestone for the company in its commitment to supporting the evolving logistics requirements of Australia’s technology and automotive sectors.
The 21,078-square-metre warehouse, strategically located in Western Sydney, enhances DHL’s national distribution capabilities to best serve customer requirements and offers proximity to the upcoming DHL transport hub.
The facility offers ambient storage with selective racking and block stack areas, eight recessed docks, six on-grade doors, and a mezzanine for rework and value-added services.
Examples of built-in measures include several energy and resource efficient features such as 256 kWp rooftop solar panels that reduce grid electricity reliance, rainwater harvesting for non-potable uses, LED lighting with efficient controls to reduce electricity consumption, and EV charging.
DHL Supply Chain Asia Pacific CEO, Javier Bilbao who visited Australia for the official site opening, said: “Australia is a key market for us, and we remain committed to supporting the country’s growth, including its technology and automotive sectors.
“On the technology part, businesses in Australia have doubled their spending on data centres in just six months last year, and we have solutions that can help them.
“Likewise, we see growth in the consumer demand for the automotive sector, with nearly 99,000 new vehicles sold in 2025 and increasing aftermarket requirements.
“Our Strategy 2030 focuses on delivering value to our customers, and we’ve been investing ahead of the curve in the region to strengthen supply chain resiliency and flexibility by expanding warehouse capacity and future-proofing logistics centres.”
