Buy Now

Market Overview

Any economy's ability to perform economically depends on logistics and warehousing. Like other African nations, Kenya has structural problems with its logistical infrastructure, but the ease of doing business and a supportive political environment have helped it advance. In 2018, Kenya was ranked 68 in the Logistics Performance Index and 61 in the East of Doing Business Index. Over the past few years, the Kenya Logistics Market has shown excellent expansion. The main causes of the development included government initiatives like the Standard Gauge Railway (SGR), Kenya's advantageous location as the gateway to East Africa, and the growing retail and import sectors.

Report Analysis

According to the research report, “Kenya Logistics and Warehousing Market Outlook to 2023 – By Sea, Land, Pipeline, Air Freight Forwarding; International and Domestic Freight, Integrated and 3PL Freight Forwarding; By Warehousing (Industrial/ Retail, ICD/CFS, Cold Storage, Others), 3PL Warehousing, Type of Warehouses; By Courier Express and Parcel Logistics and E-commerce Logistics” states that the market is anticipated to benefit from the expansion of infrastructure and construction industries. In addition, it will grow from increased industrial activity, e-commerce, and an influx of foreign businesses into the nation during the projected period of 2023.

The rise of the freight forwarding market in Kenya was significantly influenced by the F&B, FMCG, and industrial sectors. Due to improvements in the road infrastructure, it was found that road freight was the most desired mode of transportation, followed by air and sea freight. There are several challenging terrains in Kenya that are inaccessible by any other form of transportation. The Kenya freight forwarding market's top revenue source was Asia.

The Kenya warehousing business had expanded slowly due to the severe shortage of high-quality, contemporary warehouses. One of the major areas of logistics that calls for increased funding and technological innovation is warehousing. It is anticipated that the development of automation technology and more sophisticated inventory management systems would aid in the expansion of the warehouse sector.

Compared to the US and China, the African continent's E-Commerce market grew relatively late and only accounts for 0.6 percent of total transactions in 2017. According to estimates, Kenya's e-commerce market is valued KSh 4.3 billion.   As the industry expands, so do the market's logistical requirements, particularly in the express delivery sector.

Key Players

Some major key player companies in Kenya’s Logistics and Warehousing Market are DB Schenker, CEVA Logistics, Panalpina, FedEx TNT, Panalpina, Agility Logistics, DHL, Bollore, Siginon, Kuehne Nagel, Freight Forwarders Kenya, and some others.

Future Prospects

In the forthcoming years, Kenya’s market growth is anticipated to be attributed to the warehousing segment's higher growth rate than the dominant freight forwarding segment. In order to offer better customer service, logistics organizations are anticipated to invest in cutting-edge technological solutions including autonomous logistics, real-time tracking, and automation. Incorporating cutting-edge technology-based solutions can aid logistics service providers in efficiently delivering goods in light of the expanding global trade. Additionally, construction industries will be the main factor for the growth, which has sparked a wave of construction projects in the nation, increasing trade and storage activities.

“On the back of the new Intra-regional trade and improving foreign trade ties, the logistics sector in Africa experienced a growth in 2018.”

Analysts at Ken Research in their latest publication “Africa Logistics and Warehousing Outlook to 2023- By Countries (South Africa, Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Nigeria, Namibia and Botswana), Freight Forwarding (Mode of Freight (Road, Rail, Air, Sea and Pipeline), By End Users and by Contract Logistics and Integrated Logistics Warehousing (Type of Warehouses, By End Users and by Contract and Integrated Logistics" believe that the Logistics and Warehousing market of the continent is at its growing stage. Growth in the intra regional trade would help boost the market.

Intra Regional Trade: With the help of the African Continental Free Trade Area there comes an establishment of a single continental market for goods and services which seeks to increase intra-African trade by cutting tariffs by 90% and harmonizing trading rules at a regional and continental level. If the trade agreement turns out to be successful the intra-African trade is expected to increase by 52.3% by 2022.

Growing Third Party Logistics: Growth of Third Party Logistics in Africa has increased by sharing assets, warehousing capacities, and even truckloads. This can enable you to bridge efficiency gaps, avoid under- and over-capacities, reduce the cost of specialized freight services, and eventually foster horizontal collaboration in the sector. This has helped both the prominent and the local players as the former is able to have a larger reach to the clients whereas the latter is able to have an access to their fleet.

Higher Cost of Logistics: The cost of logistics and warehousing in the continent is extremely high as compared to other regions.  In some areas of the continent the transport cost even accounts for a higher trade barrier than the import tariffs or any other trade restrictions. For the East African Community the logistics cost range between 1.7% and 2.8% of the GDP of those economies. Even a single day’s reduction in the inland travel times could lead to a 6-8% increase in the exports which is almost equivalent to the increase in exports which would have taken place with a 1.5% cut in import tariffs of a country.  It has also been estimated that a 10% drop of the logistics costs could help increase trade by 25% across the continent.

Retailers and Wholesalers are Major End Users: The largest revenue providers for the logistics market are the retailers and the wholesalers. Slower retail growth in South Africa has made the logistics companies explore other countries such as Algeria, Kenya and Angola. With respect to Algeria, the retail industry logistics is expected to grow by double digits by 2020. The government of Algeria has plans for the construction of a deep water port at El Hamdania which would also act as a catalyst for the growth of logistics in Africa.

Africa’s agtech wave gets $10 million richer as Twiga Foods raises more capital

Nigerian trucking logistics startup Kobo360 has raised $6 million to upgrade its platform and expand operations to Ghana, Togo, and Cote D’Ivoire.

The company — with an Uber -like app that connects truckers and companies with freight needs — gained the equity financing in an IFC led investment. The funding saw participation from others, including TLcom Capital and Y Combinator.

With the investment Kobo360 aims to become more than a trucking transit app.

“We started off as an app, but our goal is to build a global logistics operating system. We’re no longer an app, we’re a platform,” founder Obi Ozor told TechCrunch.

In addition to connecting truckers, producers and distributors, the company is building that platform to offer supply chain management tools for enterprise customers.

“Large enterprises are asking us for very specific features related to movement, tracking, and sales of their goods. We either integrate other services, like SAP, into Kobo or we build those solutions into our platform directly,” said Ozor.

Kobo360 will start by developing its API and opening it up to large enterprise customers.

“We want clients to be able to use our Kobo dashboard for everything; moving goods, tracking, sales, and accounting…and tackling their challenges,” said Ozor.

Kobo360 will also build more physical presence throughout Nigeria to service its business. “We’ll open 100 hubs before the end of 2019…to be able to help operations collect proof of delivery, to monitor trucks on the roads, and have closer access to truck owners for vehicle inspection and training,” said Ozor.

Kobo360 will add more warehousing capabilities, “to support our reverse logistics business”—one of the ways the company brings prices down by matching trucks with return freight after they drop their loads, rather than returning empty, according to Ozor.

Kobo360 will also use its $6 million investment to expand programs and services for its drivers, something Ozor sees as a strategic priority.

“The day you neglect your drivers you are not going to have a company, only issues. If Uber were more driver focused it would be a trillion dollar company today,” he said.

The startup offers drivers training and group programs on insurance, discounted petrol, and vehicle financing (KoboWin). Drivers on the Kobo360 app earn on average approximately $5000 per month, according to Ozor.

Under KoboCare, Kobo360 has also created an HMO for drivers and an incentive based program to pay for education. “We give school fee support, a 5000 Naira bonus per trip for drivers toward educational expenses for their kids,” said Ozor.

Kobo360 will complete limited expansion into new markets Ghana, Togo, and Cote D’Ivoire in 2019. “The expansion will be with existing customers, one in the port operations business, one in FMCG, and another in agriculture,” said Ozor

Ozor thinks the startup’s asset-free, digital platform and business model can outpace traditional long-haul 3PL providers in Nigeria by handling more volume at cheaper prices.

“Owning trucks is just too difficult to manage. The best scalable model is to aggregate trucks,” he told TechCrunch in a previous interview.

With the latest investment, IFC’s regional head for Africa Wale Ayeni and TLcom senior partner Omobola Johnson will join Kobo360’s board. “There’s a lot of inefficiencies in long-haul freight in Africa…and they’re building a platform that can help a lot of these issues,” said Ayeni of Kobo360’s appeal as an investment.

The company has served 900 businesses, aggregated a fleet of 8000 drivers and moved 155 million kilograms, per company stats. Top clients include Honeywell, Olam, Unilever, Dangote, and DHL.

MarketLine estimated the value of Nigeria’s transportation sector in 2016 at $6 billion, with 99.4 percent comprising road freight.

Logistics has become an active space in Africa’s tech sector with startup entrepreneurs connecting digital to delivery models. In Nigeria, Jumia founder Tunde Kehinde departed and founded Africa Courier Express. Startup Max.ng is wrapping an app around motorcycles as an e-delivery platform. Nairobi-based Lori Systems has moved into digital coordination of trucking in East Africa. And U.S.-based Zipline—who launched drone delivery of commercial medical supplies in partnership with the government of Rwanda and support of UPS—and is in “process of expanding to several other countries,” according to a spokesperson.

Kobo360 has plans for broader Africa expansion but would not name additional countries yet.

Ozor said the company is profitable, though the startup does not release financial results. Wale Ayeni also wouldn’t divulge revenue figures, but confirmed IFC’s did full “legal and financial due diligence on Kobo’s stats,” as part of the investment.

Ozor named Lori Systems as Kobo360’s closest African startup competitor.

On the biggest challenge to revenue generation, it’s all about service delivery and execution, according to Ozor.

“We already have volume and demand in the market. The biggest threat to revenues is if Kobo360’s platform doesn’t succeed in solving our client’s problems and bringing reliability to their needs,” he said.

The report titled “Africa Logistics and Warehousing Outlook to 2023- By Countries (South Africa, Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Nigeria, Namibia and Botswana), Mode of Freight (Road, Rail, Air, Sea and Pipeline), By End Users and by 3PL, By Type of Warehouses” provides a comprehensive analysis of the Logistics market of Africa. The report covers the overall size and future outlook of the freight forwarding and warehousing market along with a snap shot on the courier and parcels market along with a number of segments for each. The competitive landscape of the warehousing and freight forwarding segment is also present. The same has been concluded with analyst recommendations.

Africa Logistics Market Overview and Size: The African logistics market has seen a steady growth between 2013 and 2018 accounting to a single digit CAGR during this period. The continent is extremely rich with natural resources and increase in mining of coal has helped the market grow. The major exporting partners include United States, China and Japan. Infrastructure has been problematic for Africa and China has helped tremendously to curb the issue. China has made a number of investments to improve the roads, ports and railways which has helped in the growth of the market. The Freight Forwarding Market contributes the most towards the overall logistics market of Africa.

Africa Freight Forwarding Market: Contract logistics is known as the driving force for the freight forwarding market and is opted frequently. The market has experienced a growth in its study period resulting in a single digit CAGR. Food and beverages has been the market’s driving force as most of the consumer spending is towards the same. Road freight was observed to be the most preferred mode of transportation due to the development in the road infrastructure; followed by sea and rail freight. Future trends in the market focus on Africa having less trade with developed nations and more with developing nations.

Africa Warehousing Market: The warehousing market of the continent is at its growing stage. The food and beverages market is the dominant user of the warehousing market in Africa. Open storage are preferred the most as compared to closed and cold storage warehouses. East Africa will lead in the demand for industrial space, which is set to grow at six per cent annually in Ethiopia, and at 5.1 percent and 3.6 percent in Uganda and Kenya, respectively. In response to the growing demand for warehousing, Africa North Africa is expected to experience a gradual growth over the next 10 years. Egypt and Morocco currently have higher demand estimates than East and West Africa in terms of size but are set to grow at a slower rate

Competitive Scenario: Most of the African countries have few dominant international freight forwarding players in the market. The lack of infrastructure and capital make the local players resort to third party logistics, which is estimated to be the same in the future. Some of the major companies include Bollore Africa Logistics, Kuehne Nagel , DHL, Maersk, DSV Panalpina , CEVA Logistics and DB Schenker .The industry is at a growth stage in terms of parameters such as technology, efficiency and service portfolio but not pricing as the logistic cost is too high leading to contraction of manufacturing sector in the GDP.

Country Profiles

Botswana: Botswana being a landlocked country is highly dependent on road for the transportation of their goods which also has the highest revenue percentage towards the overall freight forwarding market. The market is dominated by international players and has experienced a single digit CAGR during 2013-2018.

Namibia: Namibia is considered to have one of the best road networks in Africa which also helps the road freight to dominate over the market. The country offers dry port facilities to Zambia, Botswana, Zimbabwe and other landlocked countries. New container terminals are built on Walvis Bay which would help double its capacity in the future.

Tanzania: Amongst the countries taken into consideration the market of Tanzania has experienced the maximum growth owing to a double digit CAGR between 2013 and 2018. The market is highly concentrated with international players and the international freight dominates. The new local companies entering the market haven’t been able to adopt the new technologies and resort to third party logistics.

Uganda: Being a landlocked country multimodal transportation has gained importance in the country. The Gulu town in Northern Uganda is to get a new USD 8.8 million trade logistics hub with money provided by the EU. The warehousing market experienced an increase in demand which could be attributed to introduction of warehouse receipt system, increase in the industrial/business parks, initiatives by United nations and decline in rental rates for warehouses.

Kenya: Kenya has achieved rank 61 in the East of Doing Business Index and rank 68 in the Logistics Performance Index. Road Transport dominates the freight forwarding market due to the monopolistic demand of road transport for delivery in remote regions, to the landlocked neighboring countries, and for the last mile delivery. There are approximately 120,000 standard warehouses in Kenya, with more than 1000 warehouses in Embakasi itself. Some of the major warehousing companies include Bollore, Agility and DSV.

Nigeria: Increasing Nigerian local food products in the country has triggered the demand for logistics and warehousing making food and beverages the leading end user for freight forwarding. Due to infrastructural challenges, big market players prefer to outsource services to local transporters and focus on their core competencies. The Lekki free trade zone project was established focusing on the development of logistics and warehousing center in the southeastern part of Nigeria.

South Africa: The FMCG, Retail and Automotive industries in the country played a significant role, especially for the domestic market, in the growth of freight forwarding market in South Africa. The country is the most developed in terms of infrastructure and techniques being used. The warehousing sector experienced a slow growth due to the economic slowdown and political instability in the country. The major companies include Value Logistics, Bidvest Panalpina and Access Freight International.

Future Outlook and Projections: The overall logistics and warehousing market of the continent is expected to grow by a single digit CAGR from 2018 to 2023. Growth in intra-regional trade and projects like AFCFTA has helped in the same. The largest trigger of the logistics and warehousing market in the long run is the development of infrastructure and construction sector. This has caused a spree of developments in the country which has increased the trade and warehousing activity in the continent. Investments in advanced technologies solutions such as autonomous logistics, real-time tracking and automation in order to provide an improved customer service will also boost the market of Africa.

The report titled “Brazil Road Freight Market Outlook To 2023 – By International and Domestic Freight, Domestic Flow Corridors, International Flow Corridors, End Users, Integrated and Contract Logistics” provides a comprehensive analysis of Road Freight market in Brazil. The report covers the overall size and future outlook of Brazil Road Freight in terms of value, segmentation on the basis of International and Domestic Flow Corridors, End Users, Integrated and Contract Logistics. It also covers the competitive landscape and company profiles, future predictions and analyst recommendations highlighting the major opportunities and challenges.

Brazil Logistics Industry Overview and Size by Revenue and Fleets

Road Freight is growing mainly due to the growing agricultural exports to South American countries and increasing automotive sector. The healthcare and pharmaceutical industry along with the e commerce and express delivery market are increasing the demand for door to door logistics in Brazil. Poor road infrastructure, low margins, increasing road accidents and theft are the major factors limiting growth in the market. The market is strictly regulated by RNTRC with electronic freight payments and toll vouchers paid by the companies to the truckers. More vehicles are registered under the company’s name in comparison to freelancers and cooperative ones.

Brazil Freight Forwarding Industry Segmentation

By Domestic and International Freight

Domestic freight dominated the market due to the poor railway connectivity that is concentrated in south eastern region of Brazil which makes road the only means to transport the goods. Sau Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Minas Gerais, Amazonas, Brasilia are some of the hubs that have contributed to domestic road freight in the country. Trade agreements such as MERCOSUR and free trade agreements with other countries are contributing to International freight in the market.

By Domestic Flow Corridors
