For air freight, we charge $15 per kilogram, calculated based on the chargeable weight—the higher of the actual weight or the volumetric weight of your package. The higher amount is known as the chargeable weight. This rate includes customs clearance, so there are no surprise charges when your package arrives in Kenya.

The minimum air freight charge depends on the warehouse location:

This makes air freight a cost-effective option for small packages. For air shipping, we consider the weight or volume of the package, choosing the higher value to calculate the cost. To learn more about this, click here.

Air freight is billed by the higher of actual weight or volumetric weight.

Step 1: Determine actual weight

Actual weight must always be in kilograms. If the weight is given in pounds, convert it to kilograms by dividing the pounds by 2.20462.

Step 2: Calculate volumetric weight

Volumetric weight must always be in kilograms.

Volumetric weight (kg) = (L × W × H in inches) divided by 366

Step 3: Determine Chargeable weight

Chargeable weight = the higher of actual weight or volumetric weight

Step 4: Multiply by the air rate

Air cost = Chargeable weight × $15

The minimum charge will apply based on the warehouse location.

Our ocean freight rate is $30 per cubic foot (CBF), with a minimum charge applied depending on warehouse location:

This rate includes customs clearance, ensuring a smooth and hassle-free delivery process. Ocean shipping is ideal for larger or bulkier shipments, providing a cost-effective solution for heavier items. Ocean shipping charges are based on the cubic footage of your shipment, which is determined solely by its dimensions.

Our freight charge of $30/CBF equals $1,060 per cubic meter (CBM). Volume commitment pricing with exclusive discounts is available for bulk shippers. Click here to view the details.

Step 1: Measure the package to identify its length (L), Width (W), and Height (H) in inches. Ocean freight uses dimensions only; weight is not necessary.

Step 2: Calculate cubic feet

Cubic feet = (L × W × H in inches) divided by 1,728

Step 3: Multiply by the ocean rate

Ocean cost = cubic feet × $30

The minimum charge will apply based on the warehouse location.
