Express Freight Management commenced operations in Lae, Papua New Guinea in 1989 from an opportunity representing both air and sea freight agencies. A global partner wanting increased representation necessitated opening a Port Moresby office shortly after. From this point development and growth followed quickly. Since then, the EFM Group has expanded its service profile and geographic footprint, always staying true to total freight and logistics. The Australian operation opened its doors in Brisbane in 2001 followed by the Solomon Islands operation in 2010 and Fiji in 2016. In 2023 we opened our offices in Madang and Wewak in order to support our vessel agency activities.
