GMC member Melbourne Avalon Airport continues to grow its position as a major logistics and export gateway, following a new Memorandum of Understanding with the Australia Saudi Logistics Alliance (ASL Alliance).
The partnership will support direct air cargo services between Australia and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, unlocking faster access to a rapidly growing market.
The announcement builds on the airport’s recently opened $8 million freight processing facility, a 24/7 hub capable of handling up to 100,000 tonnes of cargo annually and significantly boosting Victoria’s export capacity.
Together, these developments position Avalon as a key international cargo gateway – creating new opportunities for exporters, freight operators, and investors, while strengthening Australia’s global trade connections.
