Transport & Logistics

Transport and Logistics account for around 15% of Australia’s GDP. Your industry is integral to almost every sector of our economy, establishing itself as a vital link that facilitates the local and international growth of many Australian companies.

Powered by population growth and globalisation, operators within the Transport and Logistics industry are experiencing economic conditions that present a number of growth opportunities.

In order to capitalise on these opportunities, it is essential that you have an insurance and risk management solution to protect your assets, and insulate yourself from risks that could jeopardise the strength of your organisation.

Whitbread understand that your level of risk can differ significantly depending on the cargo you handle or carry. It may vary from bed linen, to hazardous chemicals or dangerous goods.

We will work in partnership with you to develop an insurance and risk program that responds to the increasingly sophisticated risks you face as a business.


There are a variety of insurance products designed specifically for your industry:

  • Carriers Liability
  • Logistics Operator Liability
  • Property
  • Business Interruption
  • Environmental Liability
  • Motor Fleet
  • Management Liability
  • Public and Products Liability

Irrespective of your role in the transport and logistics industry, we can provide you with a solution that is specific to your business, and empowers you to plan for your future with greater certainty.
