About Outback Trade

Built by people who know both ends of the trade.

Outback Trade was founded by a team with deep roots in Australia and India. Our founders have spent close to two decades running warehousing, transport and fuel logistics businesses in India, and bring that operating discipline to every shipment we handle.

We keep the business deliberately focused on a set of products we understand well, so we can talk specification, freight and documents in detail, not just price.

“Our promise is simple. You get what the contract says, when it says, with every document correct the first time.”

Specification first

We start with your end use, then match the grade, cleaning and packing to it, and put it in writing.

Transparent pricing

One price from the seller, with freight, Incoterm and validity spelt out. No hidden commissions or agent fees.

People you can reach

A named contact for each trade, on Australian and Indian business hours.
