About Us
— Working your way
Cable International provides international freight forwarding, customs brokerage, logistics and trade services — uniquely tailored to your needs. Locally owned and operated since 1956, we work as an extension of your business: proactively managing freight and supply chains with precision, transparency and unwavering reliability.
At every stage, we keep things moving — your goods, your goals, your business.
Cable International began in Sydney in 1956 with a clear goal — to move Australian businesses forward. That mission still drives us today.
Now in our third generation, we remain a family-run business that values integrity as much as we value innovation. We’re proud to have grown with so many of our clients — working together to navigate the shifting tides of global trade, new markets, new regulations and the ever-changing nature of doing business.
We know our clients’ stories — not just their shipping schedules. We’ve celebrated their milestones, adapted to their challenges, and never stopped showing up when it matters most. That’s the true measure of a freight partner.
What Sets Us Apart
We pride ourselves on staying one step ahead — of deadlines, documentation, requirements, and expectations. With Cable International, you’ll never need to chase — we’re already on it.
