Woolworths Group's Moorebank Regional Distribution Centre (RDC) has been nominated for the Most Sustainable Warehouse award. The $1.3 billion logistics precinct in Western Sydney includes the RDC and a National Distribution Centre (NDC), facilitating the movement of over five million cartons weekly to more than 1,000 stores.

Both facilities cover 75,000 square metres and have achieved a 5-star Green Star rating. Key sustainability features include solar power expected to generate 5.3 megawatts annually, rainwater harvesting, and a direct rail connection, anticipated to remove 23,000 truck movements annually. The project generated over 1,300 jobs during construction and will employ around 800 staff.
