Sourcing is the start, not the whole job

We stay on the file until the vehicle is registered in your name and driving on Nigerian roads — sourcing, verification, inspection, shipping, duty, clearing and delivery.

What each stage actually covers

Freight

Two ports, two methods

Which we use depends on the vehicle, the season and how quickly you need it. We tell you which before you commit.

RoRo

Roll-on / roll-off

The car is driven aboard a dedicated vehicle carrier. Usually faster and cheaper for a single standard vehicle.

Best for standard saloons and SUVs

Container

Shared or sole container

The car is secured inside a container. Better protection from weather and handling, and parts can travel with the vehicle.

Best for higher-value units

Ports of entryLagos — Tin Can and ApapaOnne — Rivers State
