Wiri is a mostly industrial-commercial focused suburb in Manukau City, located to the southwest of the city.

As of 2009, Ports of Auckland is building an inland port / rail siding in Wiri, to connect road freight to the port facilities on the Waitemata Harbour further north. The new facility will allow Ports of Auckland to reduce the amount of trucks that have to travel through the Auckland Central area by up to 100,000 trips per year.^[1]
