Questions buyers in Netherlands ask

How do your products reach Netherlands?

Flowers and chilled meat fly from JKIA, Nairobi. Avocado, tea and coffee sail from Mombasa in containers. The route section on this page lists the airports and ports we quote to.

What documents arrive with the shipment?

Commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of origin and the certificate the product needs — phytosanitary for flowers, fruit, tea and coffee; halal and veterinary health for meat — plus the airway bill or bill of lading and, for reefer containers, the temperature record.

Do you quote delivered to Amsterdam?

Yes. Tell us the Incoterm you work with — FOB, CNF, CIF or CIP — and the airport or port, and we quote to it.

Can one shipment carry more than one product?

Air shipments can combine roses and summer flowers on one airway bill. Chilled meat travels on its own. Sea containers carry one product each; we can plan them together.

How do I get today's price?

WhatsApp or the form, with the product, quantity and destination. We reply with a written quotation and the specification attached.

Do you have an office in Netherlands?

No. We sell from Nairobi, in English, Arabic and Russian, and we answer the same day.

Are you GlobalGAP certified?

We do not claim it today. Ask us and we tell you exactly where each farm and packhouse stands.
