Sea freight, air freight and customs clearance through the Port of Dakar and Blaise Diagne airport, with road transit to Mali and neighbouring countries. Forwarders worldwide hand us their consignees. Importers hand us their cargo at the factory gate.
Most of our cargo comes from forwarders around the world who need a reliable pair of hands in West Africa. We also move freight directly for companies that buy ex-works or FOB and want one partner from origin to door.
Run the whole chain with us, or plug us in where you need us: origin, main carriage, clearance or last mile.
