IMPORT
Importing materials and goods into Nigeria can be challenging. Africa Access makes sure your consignments arrive on time – so energy and working capital can be directed to increase business.
You order. We do the rest. From the moment we get your proforma invoice, we pilot your shipments through the government agencies, importation process, shipping agents and lines, terminal operators, inspection agents and banks. You follow the whole process via our tailor-made ERP system. We will deliver the shipment at the agreed time to your doorstep. We have a global network of vetted forwarders and are a member of CLC Projects.
Getting it right the first time is a key to success in Nigeria. For import documentation alone, there are hundreds of data points where errors can create delays. Let us cover it – along with the clearing – and the job will get done right. If necessary, we can also train and support the suppliers of our clients in providing correct documentation.
If you prefer to do documentation management in-house, you will still need a reliable partner to ensure efficient clearing and transportation from the port to your premises. We will keep you up to date throughout the importation process. Besides the importation of containers, we offer bulk clearing in close cooperation with our sister company, Africa Port Services, one of the leading shipping agents in Nigeria. Our system allows you to log in to our ERP system to check on the status of the delivery at any time, and at any stage.

EXPORT
The export business is growing in Nigeria – particularly in the agricultural and mining sector. Opportunities abound and Africa Access provides a total solution.
You sell. We do the rest. We can organise the transportation from your premises to the Port of Destination and take on the responsibility from Ex Works to DDP. We have a global network of vetted forwarders and are a member of CLC Projects.
Even if you already have established export processes, your company still wants to have a reliable partner for forwarding and transporting goods. And if you ask Africa Access for a quote, you’ll get more than a number.

WAREHOUSING
We can find the most cost-efficient warehousing solutions for your products – whether they’re inbound or outbound.
Africa Access has a warehouse facility in Iddo, Lagos. The location is strategically located (close to Apapa port, but just outside of the congestion area), enabling us to deliver goods from our warehouse to customers with a high precision of delivery.
The facility consists of a variety of spaces including the 1,200 m2 closed warehouse, 600 m2 covered space, 4,500 m2 of paved open space and another 5,000 m2 of unpaved open space. We have racking for pallets and spare parts, an office on site and a warehouse management system.
We offer storage services for containers (full and empty), storage of goods and the delivery of specified quantities based on customers’ requirements. In addition, we also provide VMI services.
Africa Access offers customized approaches to meet your particular needs, including dedicated or shared warehousing spaces. We can arrange warehouse staff and supervision, security, traceability, SOPs and a WMS system for in/out and inventory control.

PROJECT LOGISTICS
We understand the challenges of importing capital goods. We also know that construction projects need their material on-site and on time – and specialised transportation is often required. As your logistic partner, we make it all flow in the most cost-effective manner possible.

TRANSPORTATION
We provide all transport requirements, from Ex Works anywhere in the World to DDP within Nigeria.
With partners in strategic locations, we access the world. We have direct contact with most airlines providing cargo services for Nigeria. We can also coordinate consolidated shipments, air-bridges for spare parts supplies, and air freights for special projects.
We provide transportation from the Nigerian seaports and airports to our client’s warehouse. For exports and our door-to-door service, we have a global network of vetted freight forwarders that we subcontract for any foreign transport.
Our sister company Africa Port Services is one of Nigeria’s largest shipping agents and has excellent contacts with all the relevant shipping lines. Our vetted global network of forwarders offers an excellent sourcing pool for finding the most competitive rates.
In order to circumvent the port congestion we offer our customers an option to evacuate containers or bulk cargo via barging from the main terminals to an off-dock terminal. This reduces the delivery time of the goods and increases the delivery precision.

DDP
As an extension of Africa Access’ logistics solutions, we offer a Delivery Duty Paid service through our special purpose trading company.
The DDP service offers a local delivery solution, whereby the customer raises an LPO and pays in Naira. For strategic relations and long-term agreements, we can maintain stock levels and supply Just-In-Time. Our approach is as a Logistic Service Provider and not as a trader, therefore ensuring the most cost effective and trouble free solution.
