PUTTING PEOPLE FIRST
Coming out on top despite gender disparity has its tricks but managing director Chris MacGregor has enjoyed the journey and has no regrets.
Seated in her boardroom in a signature red suit, MacGregor has a lot of charisma – a competent trait that’s helped her run a successful business.
MacGregor Logistics was established in January 1990 with a humble $13,500 in sales for that month.
At 74, MacGregor has begun slowing down but has no plans of retiring yet.
A creative thinker, MacGregor has transformed her business through hard work and exceptional customer service.
With 110 customers, the business has 18 staff and four owner drivers.

“It was devastating, absolutely devastating,” MacGregor
