Sea and air freight are the most commonly used modes of transportations to ship goods from China to Kenya. There are quite a lot of freight forwarders that offer container shipping and air cargo transport services, but we can do more. It’s vital to work with a one who understands your needs and always carries out the best tailored shipping solution from China to Kenya.

Sea Freight from China to Kenya

Sea freight is what you should opt for if you are looking for a cost-efficient way to ship your goods from China to Kenya. Sea freight is the mode of transport in which goods are shipped by sea, mostly with container ships, sometimes with bulk cargo ships or RO-RO ships, tankers, etc. Shipping by sea is slow, and we’ll have to allow for 20-30 days for a container from China to arrive in Kenya. However the advantages are significant, besides its affordable price, sea freight is superior to other forms of shipping especially for goods in bulk or equipment of large size, over long distance.

إف سي إل(Full container load): shipping a container filled with goods exclusively for one client from China to Kenya. Generally, we offer FCL shipping service to Kenya with 20ft container and 40ft container (20GP, 40GP and 40HQ). FCL is more cost efficient.
إل سي ال(Less than container load): If your cargo can’t fill an entire container, our consolidation (LCL shipping) service from China to Kenya is always available, i.e. sharing a container with other clients who have cargo to the same destination, at the same time. Naturally, due to extra work (consolidation, de-consolidation, warehousing, paperwork, etc.), the final cost on each unit is higher than FCL, and shipping takes longer. LCL is a good choice for small business to start with.
