Biosecurity plays a central role in protecting the integrity of goods entering Australia and in maintaining a safe and compliant supply chain. At Harders Contract Logistics, this responsibility guides the way we operate every day. We are proud to share that our Horsley Park site has now achieved Biosecurity Approved Arrangement AA 1.3 Quarantine certification, marking an important milestone for our organisation.
The approval followed an extensive audit by the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry on 27 October. The auditor confirmed full compliance and noted the strength of our site controls and operational processes. This outcome reflects the high level of care, discipline and attention to detail embedded in the facility.
Achieving this certification required thorough preparation and a strong commitment to meeting every requirement of the arrangement. Our team worked across all areas of the site to refine procedures, strengthen documentation and ensure that biosecurity standards were consistently applied in day-to-day operations. The result is a facility that is equipped to safely manage products that require strict oversight and absolute accuracy in handling.
For our clients this approval provides additional confidence that their goods are processed in an environment that meets the highest regulatory expectations. Whether related to storage, movement or the handling of sensitive materials, Horsley Park now offers an even stronger foundation for compliant and efficient logistics services.
This achievement underscores the long-term focus of Harders Contract Logistics on quality, safety and continuous improvement. As supply chains become increasingly complex, biosecurity assurance is an important marker of professional responsibility and operational excellence. The Horsley Park certification reflects our ongoing dedication to these and our commitment to supporting partners with reliable and trusted logistics solutions.
We look forward to building on this milestone as we continue to strengthen our capabilities and deliver services that align with the evolving needs of the industry.
