We’re creating an immediate and a much needed capacity boost while at the same time improving terminal efficiencies resulting in a faster turnaround time for customers.

To ensure that shipping is cleaner and greener, the International Maritime Organisations (IMO) has adopted mandatory energy-efficient measures to reduce Green House Gas emissions from international shipping.
The environmental management systems in Toll’s new ships, include sophisticated exhaust scrubbers to filter engine exhaust gases. This will minimise emissions so that Toll can meet the IMO’s requirements for reduced emissions.
Since its inception in 1888, Toll has grown from its single horse and cart operation in Australia to one of Asia Pacific’s leading logistics providers with a truly global footprint. In 2015 the group was acquired by Japan Post, making it the world’s fifth largest logistics company.
Today Toll offers end–to-end integrated logistics solutions providing regional capability with global connectivity. Our consistent service delivery and financial stability has resulted in long partnerships with our customers and our ability to respond to demand volatility ensures we are a trusted partner.
Safety is a core value at Toll. We believe everyone has the right to go home safely. It’s more than words on a page – we live it unashamedly, and we weave this value into everything we do with you, applying world-class safety rigour to our service solutions and customer operations.
We are always looking to deliver cost efficiencies to our customers as well as speed to market solutions through the early adoption of technology and innovation to provide you with added value.
In Singapore we have a dedicated innovation centre exploring cutting-edge technology such as robotics, integrated automation and communication as well as redefining older technologies such as RFID to ensure we are constantly evolving and responding to the demands of our customers and the market.
But we know that you don’t expect us to rest on our laurels and that is why we operate a continuous improvement model designed to increase customer value. We deploy a world-class, lean-focussed Continuous Improvement program across our organisation that serves to enhance our customer value proposition.
Our approach to customers is to proactively improve our customer communication and transparency through an embedded listen and respond culture. And drawing on the broader group, our economies of scale do not just extend to our cost advantages, but to our breadth of expertise across our network.
