Port of Toamasina: The country’s busiest port, handling over 80% of Madagascar’s imports, with transit times averaging 30–35 days from Guangzhou/Shenzhen. It serves Antananarivo, Toamasina, and eastern regions, supporting sectors like agriculture, mining, and manufacturing.

French or Malagasy-language documentation (invoices, packing lists) with detailed product descriptions to meet customs standards.
Duty payment (we provide upfront estimates, with rates varying by product category—many goods qualify for reduced tariffs under SADC rules, and essential items may be exempt).
Agricultural Equipment to Antananarivo: A farming cooperative in Antananarivo sourced 380+ items from 6 Chinese cities (Ningbo, Tianjin, Guangzhou, Changsha, Yiwu, Wuhan), including tractors, irrigation systems, and seed processing machinery. We consolidated the goods in our Guangzhou warehouse within 5 days, shipped via CIF terms to Port of Toamasina in a 40ft container, and coordinated road transport to Antananarivo. The shipment arrived in 33 days, saving 34% on shipping costs compared to individual deliveries.

We consolidated the goods, shipped via FOB terms to Port of Toamasina in an LCL container, and arranged delivery to the mining site. The shipment cleared Madagascar Customs in 2 days, arriving 35 days after pickup—meeting the project’s phase deadline.
Urgent Medical Supplies to Mahajanga: A healthcare organization required medical kits from Yiwu and diagnostic equipment from Shenzhen for rural clinics in Mahajanga. We consolidated the goods, shipped via air freight to Ivato International Airport under CIF terms, and coordinated local delivery.
