An alleged crime syndicate has been targeted during a police operation that has seen nine people arrested, including a 36-year-old from Hoppers Crossing.
Police say they have seized almost $300,000 worth of stolen goods as part of the operation investigating thefts from the retail logistics chain.
Investigations started when two men were reportedly caught trying to steal a B-Double truck loaded with wine in Truganina in June.
Police discovered the pair allegedly moving the stolen goods onto another stolen tow truck in Sunshine the next day.
The Hoppers Crossing man was allegedly found to have almost $10,000 worth of allegedly stolen goods including homewares and electrical goods at his address.
The man was charged with a number of theft related offences and will face court in January.
Over several months detectives have charged seven people allegedly involved in further burglaries and thefts.
