Deconsolidation in
Customs-Controlled Facilities

Container Freight Stations represent a critical but often misunderstood element of Kenya’s import supply chain. For businesses importing via LCL consolidation, the CFS is where consolidated containers are received, unstuffed, and individual consignments are separated for customs clearance and onward delivery.
While we don’t own CFS facilities, our partnerships with Kenya’s leading customs-controlled and appointed CFS operators ensure your consolidated cargo receives professional handling during this crucial transition from ocean transit to customs clearance.

Trusted C.F.S  solutions tailored to move your cargo safely across global trade routes.

Key Features

Customs-Controlled Operations
All our partner CFS facilities operate under Kenya Revenue Authority supervision with full customs authorization, ensuring regulatory compliance, proper documentation procedures, and integration with official clearance systems that facilitate smooth customs processing.
Modern Automated Systems
Electronic integration with KenTrade platforms, digital cargo manifest processing, automated inventory tracking, and system-generated documentation reduce manual processing delays and improve accuracy compared to paper-based operations prevalent at lower-quality facilities.
Professional Cargo Handling
Experienced staff using appropriate material handling equipment perform careful deconsolidation, proper cargo separation, and secure storage. This professional handling minimizes damage risk during the critical transition from container to individual consignment custody.
Secure Storage Environment
Covered warehouse space protects cargo from weather exposure, segregated storage areas prevent mixing of different importers' goods, and comprehensive security measures (perimeter control, surveillance, access management) protect your cargo throughout storage pending clearance.
Efficient Processing
Established procedures, adequate staffing, and proper equipment enable timely container unstuffing, accurate cargo identification, and prompt documentation generation. Faster CFS processing reduces overall clearance timelines and minimizes storage cost accumulation.
Transparent Tariff Structure
Clear storage fee schedules (typically calculated per cubic meter or ton, per day after free storage periods), published handling charges, and straightforward billing enable accurate cost forecasting. All CFS charges are passed through at actual cost without markup or hidden fees.
