Afroshipper

Overview

Afroshipper is a technology-powered logistics and cross-border commerce platform that makes it simple for individuals and businesses to send goods internationally — with upfront pricing, consolidated freight and end-to-end tracking.

The problem

Cross-border shipping is expensive, opaque and unpredictable. Senders juggle informal agents and hidden fees, rarely know the true landed cost or delivery window, and lose visibility the moment a parcel leaves their hands. Small businesses trading across Africa, Europe and North America pay the highest price for that uncertainty.

The product

One platform to quote, book, pay for and track a shipment. Afroshipper combines instant transparent pricing, air and sea freight options, consolidation and warehousing, customs-ready documentation, and a vetted partner and agent network in each corridor — so a first-time sender and a repeat commercial shipper get the same reliable experience.

Milestones

• Validated demand with early cross-border senders and small commercial shippers
• Launched instant quoting, booking and shipment tracking
• Built a partner, agent and warehouse network across multiple corridors
• Added consolidation and business accounts for repeat commercial volume
