Strategic Coverage: Servicing factories in Guangzhou (textile machinery/construction tools), Shenzhen (agricultural electronics), Foshan (steel/cement for infrastructure), Yiwu (retail textiles/souvenirs), Shanghai (heavy agricultural machinery), Ningbo (frozen food supplies), and Chengdu (coffee processing equipment). Our team reaches suppliers in agriculture, textiles, and 基建 sectors on time, with vehicles matched to cargo type.
Flexible Cargo Solutions: 20'GP/40'HQ container trucks for bulk cargo (wheat harvesters, textile looms), vans for LCL (Less than Container Load) batches (cotton textiles, small farm tools), and climate-controlled vehicles for fragile goods (precision coffee sensors, medical equipment)—critical for Ethiopia’s agriculture, textiles, and healthcare sectors.
Transparent Tracking: Real-time photos/videos of loading, plus a detailed pickup report (quantity, packaging condition, timestamp) shared via email/WhatsApp. This visibility reduces uncertainty for long-haul shipments to Ethiopia’s landlocked geography (relying on Djibouti transit).
Centralized Hub: All goods are delivered to our secure, 24/7 monitored warehouse, where unique IDs are assigned to each batch. A mobile-friendly online dashboard lets you check inventory anytime—ideal for coordinating pre-harvest (October–December for wheat, January–March for coffee) equipment restocks or pre-textile production (April–June) supply updates.
Quality Control & Efficiency: Our team verifies quantities against orders, inspects for damage (e.g., dented machinery parts, torn textiles), and repacks LCL cargo into space-optimized, dust-resistant pallets. This slashes freight costs by 25–35% compared to individual shipments—vital for Ethiopia’s small-to-medium farms and textile workshops.
Flexible Storage: Short-term (1–4 weeks) storage for consolidation, or long-term options for off-season inventory (e.g., drought recovery materials, construction spare parts). We align timelines with Ethiopia’s import schedules to avoid delays at Djibouti Port.
Air Freight:
Airport Focus: Direct/transit (via Dubai, Istanbul) service to Addis Ababa Bole International Airport (ADD)—Ethiopia’s main international airport, connecting to rural regions via Ethiopian Airlines’ domestic network. Transit time: 4–6 days from China’s major airports (Guangzhou, Shanghai, Hong Kong).
Ideal for Urgent Cargo: Perfect for high-value items (coffee processing equipment, mining sensors), time-sensitive goods (agricultural seeds, medical vaccines), or small-batch textiles (luxury fabrics for local fashion brands).
Carrier Partnerships: Priority booking with Ethiopian Airlines, Emirates, and Turkish Airlines—ensuring space even during peak agricultural harvests (coffee, wheat) or 基建 seasons (rainy season breaks: October–May).
Sea Freight (via Djibouti):
Transit Hub Coverage: Delivery to Djibouti Port (Ethiopia’s primary gateway, 95% of bulk imports pass through here), with seamless coordination for overland transport to Addis Ababa and regional hubs (Adama, Bahir Dar). Transit time: 28–38 days from China’s export ports (Guangzhou Nansha, Shanghai, Ningbo) to Djibouti, plus 3–5 days overland to Addis Ababa.
Service Terms:
EXW to Djibouti Port: We manage factory pickup, consolidation, China customs clearance, and ocean shipping with durable containers (resistant to desert transit conditions).
FOB: We handle pickup and transport to China’s ports + customs clearance; you take ownership at vessel loading.
CIF: All costs (EXW to Djibouti Port) covered, including sea freight and basic cargo insurance.
Ideal for Bulk Cargo: Agricultural machinery (wheat transplanters, coffee dryers), textile equipment (sewing machines, weaving looms), 基建 materials (steel beams, cement), and large-scale food supplies (rice, wheat) for local markets.
Multi-Currency Support: Accepts ETB, USD, EUR, CNY, and GBP via partnerships with XTransfer and Commercial Bank of Ethiopia. Transfer funds from your Ethiopian bank (ETB-denominated) or international accounts; we convert at transparent rates with no hidden fees.
Fast RMB Disbursement: We pay your Chinese suppliers in RMB within 1–3 business days, eliminating delays from foreign exchange regulations. This ensures timely production of time-sensitive goods (e.g., pre-coffee-harvest processing equipment, pre - 基建 - season machinery).
Risk Mitigation: Lock in exchange rates at payment initiation to avoid fluctuations that impact Ethiopia’s farms, textile factories, and 基建 businesses. Detailed transaction records are provided for compliance with the National Bank of Ethiopia guidelines.
End-to-End Compliance: Accurate HS code classification (aligned with Ethiopia’s import rules), preparation of commercial invoices, packing lists, certificates of origin, and sanitary/phytosanitary certificates (for agricultural goods, food supplies).
Pre-Shipment Inspections: Coordinate checks for sensitive goods (e.g., agricultural machinery, medical devices) to meet China’s export regulations. We resolve missing documents (e.g., supplier certifications for equipment safety, coffee processing standards) on your behalf.
Fast Clearance: Leverage relationships with China customs authorities to expedite processing—critical for meeting Ethiopia’s tight harvest deadlines or 基建 timelines.
All-Risk Protection: Covers loss, damage, or theft from factory pickup to delivery at Djibouti Port/ADD Airport, including overland transit from Djibouti to Addis Ababa. Includes East Africa-specific risks (desert dust, road transit mishaps) and Indian Ocean risks (cyclones, rough seas) plus transit mishandling (e.g., damaged machinery, stained textiles).
Tailored Coverage: Additional protection for high-value items (coffee processing machinery, 基建 equipment) or perishables (frozen food, agricultural seeds). We manage the entire claims process—from filing to settlement—so you focus on your business.
Seamless Transport: Door-to-door trucking from mainland China factories to Hong Kong International Port (sea freight) or Hong Kong International Airport (air freight).
Hong Kong Customs Support: Full clearance management, including permits for regulated goods (e.g., high-tech construction sensors, precision coffee instruments). We leverage Hong Kong’s global hub status to connect to trans-Indian Ocean shipments bound for Djibouti (Ethiopia’s gateway)—avoiding bottlenecks.
Canton Fair Escort Service: Bilingual (English, Amharic, Chinese) staff accompany you to the Canton Fair. Services include supplier communication, price negotiation (e.g., bulk discounts for agricultural machinery or textile equipment), product sample inspection (e.g., textile quality, machinery functionality), and factory visit scheduling. This bridges language gaps (critical for Amharic-speaking buyers) and saves time.
Factory Audit & Inspection Service: Our team arranges transportation and bilingual escorts for factory audits in Guangzhou, Shanghai, Ningbo, and other hubs. Services include verifying supplier capabilities (e.g., ability to produce drought-resistant agricultural tools), checking production quality (e.g., durable 基建 material parts), and confirming compliance with Ethiopia’s standards (e.g., food-grade packaging for coffee exports). Detailed audit reports are provided post-visit.
East Africa & Amharic-Speaking Expertise: We understand Ethiopia’s unique challenges—Djibouti Port transit, ADD Airport logistics, and agriculture/textile/ 基建 industry needs, plus Amharic-language support (aligned with Ethiopia’s official language) for seamless communication.
Cost Savings: Consolidation, direct carrier partnerships, and efficient pickup cut logistics costs by 25–35%, plus optimized Djibouti-overland transit coordination.
Reliability: 97% on-time delivery rate (even during drought or rainy seasons), real-time tracking via Maersk/DHL platforms (covering sea + overland), and 24/7 multilingual support (English, Amharic, Chinese).
Industry Focus: Our services are tailored to Ethiopia’s core sectors—from coffee processing equipment sourcing to textile and 基建 supply chain management.
