The holiday season is almost here. With Black Friday and Christmas shopping around the corner, shipping volumes are about to surge. We strongly recommend that you shop and ship early! Ordering early ensures your items arrive at our U.S. warehouse with enough time for processing and shipping to Kenya. To help you enjoy a smooth experience, here are a few important reminders as you prepare your holiday orders:

1. Remember to Create Your Orders in Your Savo Store Account

Once your seller provides tracking numbers, please create an order in your Savo Store account immediately. This helps us track your packages accurately and speeds up the processing and shipping of your order.

2. Use Our California Warehouse for the Fastest Deliveries

For the quickest shipping experience, we strongly recommend sending all packages to our California warehouse. This is also the only location where we offer package consolidation and order verification, making it the best option during the busy holiday season.

3. Black Friday & Cyber Monday Dates

Mark your calendar:

  • Black Friday: Friday, November 28, 2025

  • Cyber Monday: Monday, December 1, 2025

There is no better time of the year to find amazing deals from your favorite online stores. We encourage you to shop early and take advantage of the discounts while ensuring your items arrive at our warehouse in time for holiday processing.

4. Auto-Delivery Option for Door Delivery Customers

If you regularly receive your packages at the same address in Kenya, you can now opt into auto-delivery. When you select auto-delivery, your packages will automatically be dispatched to your address as soon as they arrive in Kenya—no address confirmation needed. You’ll receive a notification that your package is on the way, along with a Fargo Courier tracking number.

5. Upcoming Ocean Freight Shipment - December 30th

Our next ocean container departs on December 30th, with a cut-off date of December 26th. This is the perfect opportunity to take advantage of holiday discounts on bulky items such as: Furniture, TVs, Gym equipment, Rugs & home décor, Appliances and other large home goods. Ocean freight offers the most cost-effective shipping for large purchases, especially during the holiday sales period.
