About Us \ Overview \ How It Works
The Index is simple, really. We exist only to connect New Zealand businesses and entrepreneurs to high-quality, reliable service providers in the inbound freight forwarding space — because we believe in Kiwi businesses, and understand their need for efficiency and economy, especially when it comes to importing.
Our capability in this area is huge — in fact, as THE marketplace for inbound freight solutions, we’re one of a kind.
Behind The Index is a tightly-knit team of experts in the freight, IT, business development and customer service fields. We’re proud to introduce ourselves to you.

Justin Cheyne
General Manager
The link between freight forwarders and The Index, Justin’s the man to talk to if you’re a forwarder who wants to increase market share and be exposed to NZ’s major importers. Justin’s often to be seen pounding Auckland streets in training for the next ultra-marathon—slow and steady wins the race.

Deb Robson
Business Development Manager
Maybe it’s her kick-boxing-trainer technique that’s seen Deb corral many of New Zealand’s largest importers into The Index—although her freight forwarding background, and ability to demonstrate all the ways The Index is changing the way importers look at freight, may have something to do with it.

Dwayne Van Den Burg
IT Manager
One of the architects of the site, Dwayne ensures that incoming rates have the integrity needed for our Freight Calculator—and as the go-to guy for our IT issues he manages to limit the number of computers we hurl out our windows. Dwayne moonlights in surf-lifesaving, competing for Orewa Surf Club.
