About Forex Cargo
An Australian, family-owned business built around one route and one community.
A Reputation Built Over Decades
Forex Cargo has spent almost three decades building a reputation in one very specific community, and reputations like that don't survive on marketing alone. Here's what actually backs up what we say about ourselves.
Family-Owned Since 1997
The same family that started Forex Cargo still runs it today, not a franchise or private equity chain.
Part of a Bigger Family
Sister brand Forex World has handled remittance since 2004, same values, same people, different service.
Decades in One Corridor
We've never tried to be a generalist freight company chasing every market and every country.
Community-Built
Growth has come through referrals and repeat customers, not advertising spend or discount campaigns.
One Route, One Community
Forex Cargo is an Australian, family-owned and operated business helping Filipino-Australian families send balikbayan boxes home to the Philippines. Since 1997, we've grown from a single family operation into an Australia-wide network, built around one route and one community: Australia to the Philippines.
We've never tried to be a generalist freight company. We do one thing: we help Filipino families in Australia bridge the gap to the people they love in the Philippines, safely, reliably and with the care that a family's story deserves.
To keep Filipino families connected across distance, by making it simple, safe and affordable to send love home, one box at a time.
Part of the Forex Family
Forex Cargo and Forex World are sister brands sharing the same family heritage. The Australian business began with cargo in 1997, with money remittance added in 2004. Today, Forex Cargo and Forex World operate as distinct sister brands sharing the same family heritage and values. Same family. Same promise. Different services.

What Choosing Forex Cargo Actually Gets You
Being family-owned and specialised in one corridor isn't just a nice story, it translates into real differences in how your box is handled.
- A single point of accountability, not a call centre reading from a script
- Weekly sailings instead of waiting for a container to fill
- Door-to-door delivery included, not an added extra
- A business that answers for its own mistakes, because there's nowhere to hide behind
