FTA director and secretariat to the Australian Peak Shippers Association (APSA) Paul Zalai says exporters, importers and freight forwarders are looking to long-term strategies to effectively manage supply chains and to remain internationally competitive.
"Governments must maximise port assets and manage our trade gateways through incentivisation of rail usage for imports to metropolitan sites and importantly, streamlined connectivity to regional areas to cost effectively reach export markets," Zalai notes.
