OUR STORY
Our story, our mission,
our promise.
We grew up around a single customs counter that customers deserve a partner who answers the phone and owns the outcome.
From a single freight desk to four specialist arms.
SHIPNGRO was founded in 1993 when our grandfather began clearing customs shipments through the port of Dubai. What started as a one-person desk has grown into a four-arm logistics group serving clients in 40+ countries.
Our shipping arm moves FCL and LCL cargo across Africa and the GCC. Our fulfilment centre in JAFZA picks, packs and ships for major e-commerce brands. Our relocations team moves diplomats and corporate transferees to 120+ destinations. And our Africa Trade Hub connects Gulf-based traders with deep on-ground knowledge across 22 African markets.
What ties it all together: the personal touch and customs intuition that simply can't be replicated.
