Trade technology company appoints Australian-domiciled directors with deep logistics and supply chain expertise to support growth and facilitate ASX primary listing ambitions
TradeWindow Holdings Limited (NZX/ASX: TWL) ("TradeWindow" or "the Company") today announces it intends to pursue a primary Australian Securities Exchange (‘ASX’) listing.
The Company has appointed Susan Beling and Brodie Collins — two Australian Independent Non-Executive Directors with deep expertise in supply chain and logistics — to support the Company in its fastest growing market. Their appointment is also intended to meet an ASX primary listing requirement that TradeWindow have two Directors ordinarily resident in Australia.
TradeWindow also announces Chief Strategy Officer Andrew Balgarnie is stepping down from his full-time executive role and is joining the Board as an Executive Director, working part time.
TradeWindow believes a primary ASX listing will provide access to a deeper pool of investors that understand the logistics and supply chain sector and have broad mandates to support growth companies. The Company has not yet lodged a formal application for a primary listing with ASX and ASX has not provided any indication as to whether it is likely to approve a primary listing on ASX.
Ms Beling brings to TradeWindow more than 20 years' experience in logistics, supply chain, and technology-enabled service delivery. She spent more than 12 years with efm Logistics (part of the FMH Group), including 11 years as Chief Executive Officer, where she consolidated its position as the market leader in technology-enabled logistics and 4PL solutions.
Ms Collins brings over 26 years' experience in the shipping and logistics industry across Australia and New Zealand. She is currently Group Chief Strategy Officer of Mondiale VGL, Oceania's leading sea freight forwarder, with operations across New Zealand, Australia, Asia, Europe, and the USA.
Alasdair MacLeod, TradeWindow Chair said: “I am delighted to welcome Susan, Brodie, and Andrew to the TradeWindow Board. Each bring a unique mix of skills and experience, and together they add real depth to our boardroom.
“Susan and Brodie offer hands-on logistics and supply chain expertise from senior roles across the sector, at a time when that experience is directly relevant to our growth, particularly in Australia, which generated $4.1 million, or 42%, of FY26 trading revenue, a 34% uplift on FY25.
“They will also help us transition to a full ASX primary listing, a move that we believe will expand our access to growth capital and enable further recognition of the value we are creating. Meanwhile, Andrew's knowledge of the business, paired with his background in capital markets and M&A, strengthens the Board as we progress our growth strategy across Australia and New Zealand.”
Ms Collins and Ms Beling join the Board with immediate effect, while Mr Balgarnie joins the Board on 14 September 2026. All three will stand for election at our Annual Shareholders’ Meeting on 29 September 2026 in accordance with the NZX Listing Rules.
