What we move

Three ways to ship, one standard of reliability

Whether it's a same-day drop across Nairobi or a bulk shipment crossing into Uganda, every parcel gets the same tracked, cleared, on-time handling.

From KSh 450 · same-day

CROSS-BORDER

Express delivery

1–3 day express delivery to Kampala, Kigali, Dar es Salaam and beyond, with customs clearance handled for you at every border crossing.

LONG-HAUL

Southern Africa road freight

How a parcel moves

Five steps, one waybill number

Book a pickup

Send us the shipment details — item, destination, recipient contact — and we schedule collection.

Rider or driver collects

We pick up from your location in Nairobi and route it into the right delivery channel.

Cross-border consolidation

For Uganda, Rwanda, and Tanzania routes, parcels travel together to keep costs down and schedules predictable.

Border clearance

Our team manages customs documentation at the crossing, so the shipment doesn't sit and wait.

Delivery + tracking closeout

Final delivery to the recipient, with tracking updates the whole way and proof of delivery.

Why sellers and businesses stay with us

The border is where most couriers lose your parcel's trust. It's where we start.

After 15 years serving Nairobi and East Africa, we built the business around solving the crossing first — Pepsi Uganda and Toyota Kenya/Uganda trust us with it, and so can you. That same approach now carries parcels all the way down to Johannesburg.
