Rhenus Logistics New Zealand - Global Freight Group

Member Profile: Rhenus New Zealand

Rhenus Logistics New Zealand, formerly Malcolm Total Logistics, became part of the Rhenus Group in 2020. This marked a significant step in enriching the small New Zealand based operation that was already in place. Rhenus is a family-owned German company, renowned for its commitment to service and expansion. This blending of a local entity with an international giant has created a unique presence in New Zealand’s freight and logistics landscape. 

Specialized Services for Diverse Needs 

Rhenus New Zealand prides itself on offering bespoke services tailored to the specific needs of its clients. Recognizing that every individual and business is unique, Rhenus focuses on decentralized solutions. A notable expansion has been in the Pharmaceutical and controlled drugs sector, with a new state-of-the-art, temperature-controlled warehouse near Auckland Airport. This specialized facility highlights Rhenus’ commitment to catering to niche markets with precision and care.

A Long-Standing Member of Global Connections 

Rhenus New Zealand’s association with Global Freight Group (GFG), initially under Malcolm Total Logistics, spans over 12 years. The decision to join GFG was influenced by the positive experiences shared by Wallace International, another member of the group. The supportive and loyal nature of GFG’s membership was a key attraction.

Rhenus New Zealand’s Peter Manderson‘s first GFG conference in Barcelona left a strong impression. The event’s focused nature and the genuine interest of members in collaborative opportunities set the stage for future mutual benefits. 

New Zealand: A Land of Natural Beauty and Innovation 

While rugby stands as the national sport, the country doesn’t have an official national dish. However, being an island nation, fish and chips, along with a delicious rack of lamb, are local favorites. The creative and innovative spirit of New Zealanders is driven by their geographical remoteness. This spirit, combined with the country’s breath-taking scenery, makes New Zealand a unique and vibrant place to live and do business.
