IPG Shipping Services is an Australian-controlled maritime logistics platform connecting regional producers, exporters, and supply chains to the world — beginning now, building toward something transformative.
IPG Shipping Services (IPGS) is the commercial keystone of Australia's most ambitious freight and logistics program — an Australian-controlled platform delivering container, breakbulk, and bulk shipping services across Australia, New Zealand, and Asia.
For too long, Australian exporters have depended on foreign-controlled carriers and congested southern ports. IPGS changes that — bringing sovereign capability, direct regional access, and integrated inland connections to the market, starting now.
Scheduled liner services connecting Australian ports directly to Southeast Asia, expanding with demand.
Purpose-built multipurpose vessel capability for steel, cement, timber, and oversized cargo across the Tasman.
Rail-first connections to inland port precincts — the commercial trigger for a $20 billion infrastructure ecosystem.
IPGS is launching now — not as a concept, but as an operating business with contracted cargo, a deployed vessel, and a clear pathway to scale.
A dedicated multipurpose vessel on a continuous trans-Tasman rotation, targeting the AUD $400 million breakbulk market. Carrying steel, cement, timber, project cargo, and limited container capacity, this service establishes operational credibility and early revenue while validating freight flows.
Following successful MVP execution, IPGS transitions to scheduled container liner services on a direct Australia–Indonesia route — the only direct bilateral connection of its kind. Three to five geared 2,500 TEU vessels will provide frequency and reliability for exporters and importers across the Northern Territory, Queensland, and New South Wales.
As Project Velocity's container terminal achieves scale, IPGS evolves into the anchor shipping activation of a hub-and-spoke network — where deep-sea vessels call centrally at Gladstone and smaller feeder services distribute containers across east coast and regional ports. This mirrors global best practice and transforms Australia's trade architecture.
Central Queensland is one of Australia's most productive export regions. IPGS provides the missing logistics link — the gateway these industries have lacked.
Australia's largest cattle inventory calls Central Queensland home. Largely containerised, these exports now have a closer gateway to Asian markets.
Wheat, sorghum, chickpeas, and cotton — high-growth commodities ideally suited to containerised export, with active demand already engaged at Gladstone.
Avocados, macadamias, and refrigerated produce demand reliable cold-chain logistics. Reefer-capable vessels and purpose-built cold storage connect growers to global buyers.
Breakbulk specialists: steel coils from BlueScope, timber from New Zealand's Red Stag, construction materials and project equipment requiring specialist lift solutions.
Alumina, magnesia, and mineral exports from Gladstone's established industrial base — combined with emerging critical minerals and clean energy components.
Southeast Asian manufactured goods, consumer products, and project imports for Australia's Northern Territory and Queensland — direct, without southern port congestion.
Engineered equipment, defence supply chain components, and industrial materials supporting Queensland's advanced manufacturing and resources precincts.
Core national container exports — dairy, processed agricultural products, and value-added food manufacturing benefiting from improved regional port access.
IPGS is not a standalone shipping line. It is the commercial catalyst that proves demand, de-risks the investment, and activates the broader $20 billion port-to-rail-to-inland logistics system that will transform Gladstone into Australia's most advanced container gateway.
Approximately 650,000m² secured at Auckland Point, Gladstone, under a long-term lease with extension to enable lifecycle investment.
Inland Port precinct on the Moura rail line — staging, consolidation, cold-chain, and customs functions, decoupled from the waterfront.
Integrated rail network connecting Gladstone to inland production regions, with connections to Emerald, Rockhampton, and future Inland Rail.
IPGS operates as the integrated shipping activation arm of Project Velocity — converting forecast demand into live trade volumes and providing the commercial foundation for the broader container terminal, cold-chain, rail, and inland logistics investment.
Re-establishing an Australian-controlled presence in international shipping — reducing dependence on foreign carriers and diversifying the national supply chain.
Giving Central Queensland producers direct access to global container markets — rather than requiring long road hauls to Brisbane just to export their goods.
Rail-first logistics, electrification-ready infrastructure, and reduced road freight emissions — aligned with Reef 2050 and Australia's net zero objectives.
Whether you're an exporter looking for a direct regional gateway, an importer seeking reliable Australian connections to Southeast Asia, or a stakeholder interested in the broader Project Velocity program — we want to hear from you.
