Drew Cannon is a highly respected livestock transport operator whose professionalism, reliability and dedication have earned him the trust of colleagues, clients and the wider transport industry. He is passionate about the opportunities transport provides, particularly the chance to travel throughout Australia, meet people from diverse backgrounds and experience different communities while pursuing a career he genuinely enjoys. Drew values the lifestyle associated with livestock transport and takes pride in representing the industry with professionalism wherever he travels. His commitment to excellence has seen him progress steadily through the ranks of his organisation, becoming one of its most trusted and valued employees through hard work, attention to detail and a willingness to continually learn.
Drew is deeply committed to improving both safety and working conditions within the transport industry. He understands the challenges associated with livestock transport, including strict work diary requirements, extended periods away from family and the impact of poorly prepared stock, while advocating for greater flexibility around stock carting hours and improved facilities for drivers. Safety remains his highest priority, and he places strong emphasis on ensuring loading facilities, yards and equipment are safe before commencing work. Outside of transport, Drew enjoys fishing, golf and speed shearing, while family remains central to his life. His tradition of involving family in weekly truck washing reflects the strong values and community spirit that underpin his approach to both work and life.
