Why is Mombasa important for East African trade?

Mombasa is East Africa’s largest port and the start of the Northern Corridor serving landlocked Uganda, Rwanda, South Sudan, and eastern DRC, linked inland by the Standard Gauge Railway (SGR) to Nairobi. Many Kenyan forwarders specialise in transit and bond logistics for these markets.

Can Kenya forwarders handle perishable air freight?

Yes. Kenya is a leading exporter of cut flowers and fresh produce, and forwarders offer temperature-controlled air freight and cold-chain handling out of Nairobi (NBO). Post a freight request specifying temperature and destination for quotes.

How does customs clearance work in Kenya?

Imports and exports are declared through the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) iCMS system, with a licensed clearing agent managing classification, duties, and any KEBS standards checks. Most forwarders on CargoLinked include clearing in their service.
