Big ambition. Smarter design. And WIN partners behind the build. These are the common factors behind five of the hottest industrial projects in Australia right now.
From low-carbon builds to omnichannel hubs, discover how these standout developments are redefining what high-performance industrial looks like.
1. Kmart’s $200 million Omnichannel Fulfilment Centre in Moorebank
Location: Moorebank Intermodal Precinct, NSW
WIN partner: TMX Transform
Retail logistics is getting a serious upgrade.
Kmart Group is investing in a new 100,000 sqm Omnichannel Fulfilment Centre at Moorebank to support the growth of both Kmart and Target across NSW.
Key features include:
- Direct rail-to-dock operation to remove trucks from the road and streamline container handling.
- Ability to see over 200 outbound semi-trailer movements per day at peak, enabling rapid fulfilment across NSW stores.
- A high-level gantry walkway allowing staff to move safely between the main office, central control tower and operational workfaces.
Designed to boost speed, flexibility and efficiency, the facility will modernise operations and scale supply chain capacity. It’s set to go live in late 2027.
As project management partner, TMX Transform is bringing deep expertise in supply chain infrastructure to this transformative development.
The result? A smarter, faster distribution model – and a new benchmark for tech-enabled retail logistics.
2. The Melbourne Intermodal Terminal in Somerton
Location: Somerton, VIC
WIN partner: Knight Frank
Tipped to be Australia’s largest intermodal terminal, the Melbourne Intermodal Terminal (MIT) Somerton is designed to help ease pressure on supply chains and lift freight efficiency nationwide.
Backed by a $400 million investment and owned by Aware Super, this 45-hectare open-access bonded facility is already under construction. Operations are expected to begin by October 2025.
Featuring 30 hectares of concrete hardstand, MIT is purpose-built to handle high-volume freight with unmatched durability and efficiency.
Its strategic location offers direct rail access to key national freight corridors – linking Melbourne’s Port with Brisbane, Sydney, Adelaide and Perth. It also enhances connectivity to the newly branded Melbourne Intermodal & Industrial Exchange (MIIX), a 99-hectare adjoining Industrial Estate.
As the first signature site for Intermodal Terminal Company (ITC), MIT will streamline freight flows, unlock new capacity – and drive a smarter, greener and more connected national supply chain supporting Victoria’s logistics ecosystem.
3. Realterm’s Industrial Outdoor Storage facility in Chipping Norton
Location: Chipping Norton, NSW
WIN partner: Realterm
Container capacity is under pressure – and Realterm is answering the call for help.
Its latest project? A 23,000 sqm Industrial Outdoor Storage (IOS) facility in one of Sydney’s most in-demand logistics corridors, purpose-built to absorb growing freight volumes.
Due for completion in Q1 2026, this site is a standout for two key reasons:
- Serious scale: Capacity for 1,700 empty and fully laden shipping containers across the 125-tonne-rated hardstand.
- First of its kind: The first speculative IOS facility developed outside of Australia’s ports and intermodals precincts.
With 24/7 operation, located minutes from Moorebank Intermodal and with direct access to the M5 and M7 corridors, this facility is tailor-made for transport, freight and third-party logistics operators.
This is a bold and strategic response to the growing demand for high-volume freight infrastructure, and a move that shows confidence in Sydney’s logistics future. It also reflects Realterm’s commitment to staying ahead of the curve and delivering investments that keep the world moving.
4. Goodman’s Canopy at Chifley
Location: Moorabbin Airport, VIC
WIN partner: Goodman
Sustainability isn’t seen as a bonus anymore – it’s the baseline. And Goodman’s Canopy at Chifley shows what’s possible when environmental intelligence is built in from the ground up.
Completed in 2025, this is Goodman’s first development built primarily from timber, reducing embodied carbon emissions by approximately 24% compared to a similar steel-built facility.
Key features include:
- 400kW rooftop solar
- Targeting a 5 Star Green Star Design & As Built Rating
- Smart metering and EV charging infrastructure
- Flexible warehouse and office layouts
This project balances high performance with environmental impact – and forms part of Goodman’s broader strategy to deliver low-carbon logistics in high-demand urban infill locations.
5. Vaughan’s Hale Platform Milperra
Location: Milperra, NSW
WIN partner: Vaughan Constructions
Multi-level industrial design is on the rise. And Hale Platform in Milperra is leading the way.
Delivered by Vaughan Constructions, this 38,000 sqm multi-level facility combines scale, flexibility and efficiency across two warehouse levels and four floors of office space.
Its key features include:
- Flexible tenancies from 2,900 sqm to 10,102 sqm
- 30-metre-wide undercover breezeways
- A ramp system for seamless vehicle access
Sustainability is at the forefront, with rainwater harvesting, PV solar and a target 4 Star Green Star rating.
This project shows how future-facing design looks when done right – optimising space, function and environmental performance, all in one footprint.
Ambitious, strategic and built with longevity in mind, our partners’ projects are redefining what’s possible in industrial.
