For over 62 years, GMK Logistics (GMK) has proudly partnered with the Australian flooring industry, delivering specialised logistics solutions tailored to the sector’s specific needs. From expert carpet and vinyl cutting to a comprehensive nationwide transport network, they offer end-to-end warehousing, transportation, and value-added services.

In 2023, GMK continued to expand and enhance their operations with the relocation from Ormeau to a brand-new, state-of-the-art facility in Yatala, Brisbane. This custom-built depot, spanning 22,000 sqm, is located within the impressive Yatala Central Estate and holds a 5-Star Green Star rating, highlighting their commitment to sustainability. This facility sets a new standard for GMK’s warehousing and distribution capabilities.

In 2024, they expanded their footprint even further with two major developments: a new facility in Epping, Melbourne, and the expansion of their existing site in Gregory Hills, Sydney.

The Epping facility was officially opened on 17 June 2024. This 27,500 sqm facility is designed to meet the growing demands of flooring industry clients. Relocating from a 22,000 sqm site in Laverton, the new Epping depot is located at the fast-growing 4Ten Epping Estate. Like their Brisbane site, it also boasts a 5-Star Green Star design and an As-Built v1.3 rating from the Green Building Council of Australia.

With the capacity to store over 14,000 pallets and 430,000 linear metres of roll product, the Epping facility offers space for further development as needed. They have also relocated their advanced carpet-cutting table, the Carpet Boss III—originally commissioned in Melbourne in 2019 and manufactured by Perpetual Machine Company in the USA. This cutting-edge equipment represents a significant investment by GMK in supporting their customers and the Australian flooring industry.

In July 2024, the Gregory Hills site in Sydney expanded with a brand-new 12,000 sqm facility adjacent to their existing 22,000 sqm depot. This expansion brings an additional 16,000 pallet spaces online, positioning GMK well to serve a growing customer base and meet rising demand.

As GMK continues to grow, they remain committed to delivering exceptional service to their customers. The new facilities in Yatala, Epping, and Gregory Hills are key steps in their journey to stay at the forefront of logistics for the flooring industry in Australia. With expanded capabilities and a clear focus on sustainability, GMK is well-prepared to meet future challenges while continuing to provide the high standards their clients expect and look forward to what the future holds.
