Customs Clearance and Freight Forwarding

Express Clearing of shipments for all inbound (Import) and outbound goods (Export), handled by a licensed Authorized Economic Operator.

Winnilinks Logistics offers Express Clearing of shipments for all inbound (Import) and outbound goods (Export).

During clearance of freights and cargo, imports into Kenya undergo a lot of ‘red tape’ or stages of authorisation when they arrive at Kenyan Customs and Kenya Port Authority.

However, due to the good relationships we have built and engagements we have over the years with the bodies we have mentioned, we are able to ensure the smooth running of our operations and in turn yours.

Licensed as an Authorized Economic Operator

Winnilinks Logistics LTD is now licensed as an Authorized Economic Operator and handles all its customs brokerage in-house — which means fewer intermediaries, fewer hand-offs, and one team accountable for the file from arrival to release.
