It seems as if this process has been a long time coming, but we are thankful to announce the site is now live for public consumption. In this first round we are primarily focusing on providing information to our business partners through the myPortal section of this site.

Welcome to the next generation of firstfleetinc.com. Our vision for this resource is that we can build a two way conversation between FirstFleet corporate resources and the general public and our workforce.
