We’re pleased to announce that Kaufland has started the construction of its first Australian distribution centre at Merrifield Business Park!

The new 117,000+ sq m facility will cost $255m and marks the next step in the retailer’s entry into the Australian market. The distribution centre will be one of the largest in Australia once complete and include the most advanced technologies in terms of automation, efficiency and sustainability. The centre will service Kaufland’s first stores in Australia, which are due to open in 2020 in Dandenong, Epping and Chirnside, alongside two additional sites that have received planning in Adelaide.

The facility is expected to bring 600 jobs to the region.
