Our Story

WHO WE ARE

What Malpa Means

Malpa is a word from Pitjantjatjara, an Indigenous Australian language spoken across the central desert of the Northern Territory. It means to come alongside and journey with. For a logistics business, that might sound like an odd place to start. For us it's the whole point.

Malpa 3PL handles ecommerce warehousing and fulfilment: receivals, storage, pick and pack, returns and despatch. Plenty of companies do that. What sets the way we do it apart is the belief the name carries. We don't treat fulfilment as a box you outsource and forget. We treat it as coming alongside a brand and helping carry the load as it grows.

That shapes how the whole business runs. We partner with brands we believe in, focus on what each of us does best, and build for the long journey rather than the next invoice. As we help you scale, you help us scale. Simple as that.

Everything Under One Roof in Brisbane

Every part of your fulfilment happens in one building in Darra, Brisbane. Receivals, storage, pick and pack, returns and despatch all run off a single floor, handled by one team that can see the whole operation at once.

That matters more than it sounds. Multi-site 3PLs split your stock across warehouses, and every handoff between them is a chance for something to slow down, go missing, or land on someone else's desk. Under one roof, there's nowhere for an order to get lost and no one to pass the blame to. When you call, you're talking to the people who actually pick, pack and ship your orders, not a call centre three states away.

One site. One team. One point of accountability for every order that leaves the door.

OUR FOUNDERS

Built By Operators,
Not Outsourcers

Jordan and Tim started Malpa because they kept seeing brands stuck in the same gap. Small 3PLs couldn't scale with them. Large ones treated them like a ticket number the moment they signed. Neither one came alongside a growing brand the way it actually needs.

So they built the operation in between: the systems and accuracy of a large 3PL, run by a team you can reach by name. The founders are on the warehouse floor, not behind a wall of account managers. Brands that came to us at a few hundred orders a month are shipping thousands with us now, and the same people still answer the phone.

Meet Tim

Co-Founder - Operations

Malpa 3PL began with a simple favour. A friend traveling around the Australian Outback needed someone to send orders out for his wifes clothing brand. Tim said yes. A handful of other brands heard about, asked for the same things, and before you knew it, the foundations for a 3PL came into being.

 

Tim runs the operations side of this happy accident. He’s the reason our warehouse moves the way it does from stock landing, being received accurately, picked, packed to being shipped out the door on time. He’s built a team of people who are trusted with real responsibility and where the standard is set by the team, not a manual. His view is simple: if each person is mindful of the next step in the process, the work looks after itself, and the client on the other end never has to wonder.

Meet Jordan

Co-Founder - Growth & Systems

Jordan was that friend who needed a favour. What started as an interim solution to order fulfilment whilst travelling turned into a business built around a question he’d already lived: who can eCommerce founders lean on for support when pushing for growth?

 

Jordan champions our business development, finance, systems, and the technology underneath it all. His purpose: Making the operation faster and more cost effective than it was last quarter. But the heart behind Malpa governs his moves. Running an online eCom brand can be isolating, and Malpa exists so that it isn’t. Malpa is a Pitjantjatjara word Jordan picked up when traveling around central Aus which means, to come alongside and journey with.

 

For Jordan, that means each one of our partners is known (beyond just their brand), they have someone who is there to answer the phone, and stays with them from the moment stock arrives to the moment it’s in the customers hands.

Meet Lachlan

Customer Service & Marketing Manager

Lachlan leads the customer service function and the way Malpa shows up to the world. He’s the link between our partners and the warehouse team, ensuring questions are answered the first time and that nothing gets lost between onboarding and up and running.

 

He owns our customer service standards and spends the vast majority of his time with our brands founders, learning how best to serve them and meet their needs.

Meet Barry

Sales Manager

Barry is more often than not the first person you’ll talk to at Malpa. He helps founders discover if Malpa is the best place for your brand.

 

Barry would rather have an honest conversation about fit and future goals than start a partnership that doesn’t quite work. Afterall, we strive for excellence in all that we do.

Meet Iuri

Inventory & Operations Analyst

Iuri looks after the integrity of your goods the second they arrive at our front door. Cycle counting, inventory accuracy and the processes that keep it all square by leading our inbound team and owning the standards that govern it.

 

When you ask what we have and where it is, Iuri is the reason we can answer that question with full confidence.

Meet Zaynne

Business Systems Analyst & Developer

Zaynne builds the tools that make everyone else faster. The internal Software, workflow automations, dashboards and technical problem-solving behind the scenes is all his work. It’s the quiet infrastructure that lets our team focus on clients instead of admin.

 

If a process is slower than it should be, he’s already looking at it with a solution in the pipeline. Afterall, Malpa strives to be proactive rather than reactive, and Zaynne helps make that all possible.

Meet Dai

Data Control Supervisor

Dai leads the team that keeps orders flowing cleanly and catches the exceptions before the become a bad google review on your website. Order troubleshooting, DIFOT monitoring, system configurations and client onboarding is overseen by Dai and his team.

 

He is the steady hand overseeing your first couple weeks with us, and behind the daily details long after that.

Meet Jesse
