01// Our story

Ten years on the road

Arafat Carrier Logistics was founded in Mombasa in 2014 with a single truck and a simple promise: move Kenyan businesses' cargo off the port and onto the road without the usual delays, damage and silence.

A decade on, that promise still drives everything. From the quays of Kilindini to the highlands, the lakeside and the northern frontier, we've grown into a 120-strong fleet that reaches all 47 counties — while keeping the personal, answer-the-phone service we started with.

We are proudly coastal, proudly Kenyan, and built for the realities of the road here: the port, the rains, the weighbridges and the long upcountry hauls. Your cargo is our reputation.

02// What we stand for

Our values

01

On time, every time

02

03

Cargo is sacred

Sealed, insured and handled with care from pickup to proof of delivery. Your goods are our reputation.

Rooted at the Port of Mombasa, reaching every county. We know this country's roads because we live them.
