Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a freight forwarder and a shipping line?
A shipping line (carrier) owns or operates vessels and sells space on those vessels. A freight forwarder like NexGen Shipping acts as your representative — booking space with carriers, managing documentation, handling customs, and coordinating delivery. A forwarder gives you access to multiple carriers and routes, and manages your cargo end-to-end rather than just the ocean leg.
Do you handle freight forwarding for both imports and exports?
Yes. NexGen Shipping manages freight forwarding for imports into Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda, and Zambia, as well as exports from East Africa to Asia, Europe, the Middle East, and the Americas.
How do I get a freight quote from NexGen?
Submit our freight enquiry form with your origin port, destination, cargo type, approximate weight or volume, and target shipment date. You can also send these details directly via WhatsApp or email. We respond with a detailed quote within 24 hours on all standard trade lanes.
