Major Export Companies - these companies are major participants in the live export industry. They assemble and prepare export consignments of animals.
Mr Ahmad Ghosheh
Livestock Shipping Services (Exporters of sheep and cattle)
P O Box 1441
South Perth
WA 6951
The four major exporters of cattle, sheep and goats are:
Al Mukairish Australia Pty Ltd - is Saudi owned.
Wellard Rural Pty Ltd - has close financial links to Siba Shipping (which is Italian owned).
Livestock Shipping Services - is a Jordanian subsidiary company in Australia.
Emanuel Exports Pty Ltd - is owned here in Australia, however their MAJOR agreement is with Kuwaiti Livestock Transport and Trading Company of Kuwait.
SO the vast majority of money goes overseas, not into the Australian community (as they like to claim).
