Refrigerated Freight


Transporting fresh fruit and vegetables direct from farms to Capital City Markets gave us our beginning. Today, with temperature controlled, refrigerated transport and cool store facilities, the handling and movement of perishables remains at the core of our business.


Modern warehousing facilities at Melbourne, Adelaide, Mildura, Swan Hill & Robinvale provide our customers with unique distribution opportunities.
