Brisbane - EDI International Freight Management Pty Ltd (Brisbane, Head Office) (Formerly known as EDI Customs Brokers Pty Ltd)
EDI International Freight Management Pty Ltd (formerly EDI Customs Brokers Pty Ltd) is a wholly Australian owned independent international freight forwarder and customs clearance house established in Brisbane, Queensland in 1991. The company operates from its own premises with a team of experienced professionals and offers a broad range of services across inbound and outbound movements by air and sea. EDI handles air and sea shipments including LCL and FCL, and has specialty knowledge in customs clearance, quarantine considerations, and handling of regulated cargo. The Brisbane head office coordinates activities with a network of partners enabling support for all Australian ports of entry and exit.
A key strength of EDI is its capability to arrange inbound customs clearance and delivery, supporting inbound DDU or DDP requests for shipments entering Australia. For outbound movements, the company leverages negotiated outward shipping and air rates to destinations worldwide. The service scope includes local transport and specialist cartage requirements, such as container unpacking, storage, shrink-wrapping, pick and pack, and distribution under client instructions. The organisation also provides consolidation of multiple shipments for export and deconsolidation of inbound cargo, with prompt handling of freight collect remittances to Australian consignees.
EDI maintains specialist knowledge around local customs, quarantine requirements, and compliance, including handling cargo types such as liquor, foodstuffs, agricultural products, motor vehicles, machinery, and other personal effects. While the Brisbane head office remains the central hub, the company leverages an electronic environment and a network of trusted contractors to support operations across all Australian ports of entry and exit. In addition to its core freight forwarding and customs clearance functions, EDI operates a dedicated automotive and marine shipping division with an office in Los Angeles, underscoring the company’s international reach and its ability to support clients across major trade lanes with experienced professionals and a proactive, system-based approach to cargo traceability.
Overall, EDI International Freight Management Pty Ltd positions itself as a total logistics solutions provider, combining freight forwarding, customs clearance, and value-added services such as warehousing, packing, and distribution to meet the needs of businesses engaged in international trade. The firm emphasizes reliability, professional handling of complex cargo, and direct coordination with cargo loading, manifesting, and packing managers, as well as licenced customs, ozone, and quarantine brokers to facilitate regulatory compliance and efficient shipment processing.
