Market Overview

Logistics planning, coordination, and shipment flow for the movement of commodities across international borders are referred to as freight forwarding. The freight forwarder handles container tracking, freight consolidation, customs documentation, and freight pricing negotiations.

The main factor for Kenya Freight Forwarding Market is the demand for freight forwarding services, which will anticipate rising due to growing worldwide trade and domestic industry. Additionally, Government programs like the Standard Gauge Railway (SGR), Kenya's advantageous location as the entrance to East Africa, and the thriving retail and import industries were also the drivers of the boost in the market.

Report Analysis

According to the research report, “Kenya Freight Forwarding Market Outlook to 2023 – By Sea, Land, Air, Rail, and Pipeline Freight; International and Domestic Freight, Integrated and Contract Logistics Freight Forwarding” states that the volume of international trade is increasing, which has a big impact on the Kenya freight forwarding market. Global trade is the exchange of goods and services across nations, which will allow consumers and nations the chance to experience products and services that are either unavailable or more expensive domestically. On behalf of shippers, freight forwarders plan the intermodal transportation of commodities, and greater trade volume will increase freight forwarding activities.

Due to the dominant need for road transportation for deliveries in rural areas, to adjacent countries that are landlocked, and for last-mile deliveries, road transportation dominates the Kenya Freight Forwarding Market.

Currently, only a small amount of freight travels by rail, but with the advent of SGR, this number is anticipated to rise.

Competitive Landscape

Almost all transporters and truckers are local and regional, whereas multi-service organizations are typically global. In terms of factors like technology, efficiency, service offerings, and pricing, the sector is in a growth phase.

A number of mergers and acquisitions are happening in an effort to gain market share, and there is also a shakeout of smaller businesses that cannot survive in the competitive environment.
