About Freightshop

When Andrew Cameron lived in Katanning in the early 1990s, he observed large volumes of perishable cargo headed for Perth to be put on flights to Cocos Islands. Never one to miss an opportunity, he soon had a delivery service from Katanning to Perth, an agent on Cocos Island and a fledgling business - Cocos Freight Company was born. After a while it became obvious that it would be more functional if there was one person in Perth and another on Cocos Island, so he co-opted an old friend, Kel Watkins. Andrew went to live on Cocos and the company continued to be small but functional. Not one to be idle, Andrew developed a clam farm and also managed the Cocos Club. They needed a name and logo and Kel came up with the name of Freightshop because at the time we were doing some shopping for Cocos Islanders. Who remembers Cocos Shopping Trolley?
