DHL Global Forwarding (DGF) has opened a new transit warehouse in Mombasa, Kenya.
The new 7,500 square meter warehouse is designed to support DHL’s Regional distribution network in Kenya.
Located between the Mombasa Port and DGF’s regional facilities, the new warehouse will provide cost-effective in-transit storage and distribution services to Uganda, Burundi, Congo, Rwanda, and Sudan, to help accelerate the intra-continental trade environment in the region.
The key sectors to capitalize this Transit Warehouse will be Aid and Relief, Oil & Gas, and Bulk Commodities.
DGF’s new warehouse will bring goods closer to the end user providing multi modal transport options for last mile delivery into affected areas. This will help support socio-economic inequality by enhancing the logistical capabilities of the region.
We are constantly looking to develop solutions for our valued customers, and we firmly believe the above Transit Warehouse will facilitate the movement of regional goods at optimum cost and efficiency using our global platforms across East Africa. We will continue to support efforts in simplifying logistics operations and accelerate intra-African trade.
Pramod Bagalwadi, CEO of DHL Global Forwarding Sub-Saharan Africa.
