Our History And Values
World Options was established in 2003 and has since grown into a leading provider of simple and affordable shipping solutions for businesses.
The firm was founded by Stewart Butler, after years of experience working with leading international shipping companies.
There were fewer carrier companies on the market back then, which was dominated by the big names in the industry, such as DHL, UPS, FedEx, and TNT.
At that time many small- to medium-sized businesses that had shipping requirements had to ship their goods manually by making telephone calls directly to the carriers and completing shipping rate sheets themselves.
But this presented a problem – there was very little visibility of what would happen to their shipments after they were collected. Those businesses would take hours to contact carriers to learn about their shipments.
Industry Leading Shipping Portal
There had to be a better way. Things needed to change and to move away from this very time-consuming, manual process that many companies across Australia had to go through every time they had shipping requirements.
The aim was to create an industry-leading online system that would allow businesses to do everything digitally, and in 2017 this goal was achieved, which resulted in the launch of the World Options Australia online portal.
Since then, we have made significant investments in the portal to cater to all our customers’ needs effortlessly. Businesses can log in and view multiple quotes between carriers in seconds, make an instant booking, get access to flexible tracking options, and rely upon our dedicated customer support team, who are just a phone call away.
The launch of the portal transformed our business, meaning we could take on more customers and larger volumes of business shipments.
