Campbell, CA – September 8, 2022 — DispatchTrack, the leading solution provider of right-time delivery management software, today announced that it has expanded its global footprint into Australia and New Zealand with new headquarters in Melbourne, Australia.

DispatchTrack will power deliveries in the regions for global and local brands with a focus on furniture, appliance, and 3PLs in addition to retail, food and beverage, transportation, services, and manufacturing. 

Gillies brings considerable retail, transport, and logistics expertise, and has focused exclusively on the APAC region over the last 15 years.

Australia and New Zealand are an exciting market opportunity for DispatchTrack as we continue to grow and expand throughout APAC and beyond.”

“We are delighted to welcome Scott as we continue to accelerate our growth strategy and expand our geographical footprint. This is an important region for us, and Scott is an established go-to-market business leader with proven leadership capabilities and brings with him real-world expertise in the challenges that DispatchTrack solves.
