Overview of New Zealand distribution strategy
Nylex New Zealand had entered a agreement with Logistics provider Mondiale to
perform a 3PL (third party logistics) services from it site at the Auckland
international airport site.
The project was offered to both Mainfreight & Toll – with a strategy being worked with
Mainfreight until changes to the model became unworkable from a Nylex position.
These changes were tabled to Nylex on the cusp of an agreement, at which the position
became unviable for Nylex.

How will NZ now work?
Other non distribution based staff
• Mondiale airport site has an office complex consisting of two separate floors. This office is modern
spacious with all necessary facilities including significant IT cabling & infrastructure.
• Nylex NZ sales, & other non-distribution teams will occupy the second floor of this complex. This
transition will be in the new year as the IT infrastructure has a min 6 week lead time. Until this is
configured the current office site will be used as it will take at least this period to source potential
tenants. The warehouse will be cleaned & locked after the transition.
