Halifax International Pty Ltd

The Halifax International story dates back to Northern Ireland in the early 1960s when a young Paul McCormac, fresh from leaving school and in search of employment, told his family he was heading ‘thatta way’, pointing vaguely in the direction of the United Kingdom. Full of bravado on the outside but secretly unsure of where precisely he should go – and more troubling, what he should be looking to do – he set sail and a few days later found himself, quite by chance, sitting an interview at Birmingham Airport for a position in freight forwarding. Fate had intervened and as they say, the rest is history! That he knew absolutely nothing about the industry probably worked in his favour as his prospective employer liked the idea of a novice he could teach from the word go, someone he could shape and mould to fit precisely what he was after. Paul McCormac was on his way…to a richly rewarding and successful lifetime in the freight forwarding industry.
