DISTRIBUTION & LOGISTICS

When it comes to distribution and logistics, Palmerston North city and Manawatū play a vital role in connecting industries and products within New Zealand and to the world. Located at the geographic centre of New Zealand, Palmerston North city acts as a central hub for the North Island with highway, rail and air connections to major centres and regions.
The sector comprises wholesale trade, and transport, postal, and warehousing activities. Logistics is a significant employer in the Manawatū region, accounting for 6,638 jobs, 10.2% of the total workforce in the region in 2020. The 58% growth in workforce numbers between 2000 and 2020 was significantly higher than the 29% increase in total employment in the region. The region’s workforce growth is even more remarkable when compared with national workforce growth in the logistics and distribution sector, which grew by just 29% between February 2000 and February 2020.
