enforceable undertaking11 June 2026

Respondent

Sea Swift Pty Ltd

Facts

Sea Swift supplies sea freight to remote NT and Far North Queensland communities. From September 2022 to May 2025 it put multi-year exclusivity clauses and match-right terms in customer contracts, which kept customers from using rival carriers.

Outcome

The ACCC accepted a court-enforceable undertaking under section 87B of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (11 June 2026). Terms include: Remove exclusivity and match-right terms; cap standard contract terms at 2 years; notify customers; compliance program; 3 years. An undertaking is not a finding or admission of a contravention unless the regulator says the party admitted it.
