In 1993, our journey into the world of containers commenced at Wreckair Container Service. Over the following three years, what began as a business endeavour evolved into a profound passion for the container industry.
The culmination of this passion occurred in 1996 with the establishment of the Australian Container Network (ACN), a venture led by our founder, Joseph (Joe) Kolenda, and three like-minded companions who dared to venture out on their own.
Boasting a collective experience exceeding 50 years, we co-founded the Australian Container Network (ACN). A decade of remarkable success captured the attention of industry leaders, eventually resulting in the acquisition of ACN by Royal Wolf. Joe remained a part of the wolfpack for a period before briefly stepping away from the container scene. As expected, the irresistible allure of the industry drew him back into the fold.
