Welcome
On Board to
Genetics.
A family-owned clearing and forwarding house that outlived trends by staying relentlessly operational — 10+ years of moving East Africa.
Founder started with one desk, one client, and zero shortcuts.
What began as customs clearing in Nairobi is now a corridor network across Central & East Africa — same name, same principles, bigger footprint.
We Don’t Just Move Cargo. We Keep Promises.
We Are Here To Stay. That isn’t a slogan. It’s how we survived elections, port congestions, border closures, and currency shocks while others rebranded and disappeared.
Genetics Logistics Limited was founded to fix the gap between paperwork and physical movement. For 10+ years we’ve handled the unglamorous work — bonds, permits, agency, last-mile — so our clients don’t have to explain delays to their own customers.
From Kenya to Zambia, Rwanda, DRC, Uganda and Tanzania, we operate where the cargo actually is — not just where the head office looks good on a map. Seven countries, one standard: if we say it clears, it clears.
Our Approach
Operator first.
Broker never.
We own the process. That means pre-alert before vessel arrival, HS code validation before TRA raises a query, and truck positioning before release — not after.
Why 10+ Years Matters
Relationships move
faster than emails.
After a decade on the Kenya corridor and extensions into Kigali SEZ, Lusaka, Bukavu, Kampala and Tanzania, we know which officer answers at 6am, which transporter doesn’t ghost, and which insurance clause actually pays.
What We Do
Every Day
Six core services, no fluff. Each one runs on SOPs written from real port problems — not templates.
Customs Clearing
Import & export declaration, valuation defense, exemption handling, and post-clearance audit. TANCIS, ASYCUDA, RECTS — we file correctly the first time.
Freight Forwarding
Sea, air and road freight consolidation with Dar as hub. LCL grouping to Lusaka, Kigali, Goma, Kampala and Nairobi — weekly departures, real ETAs.
Ship Agency
Husbanding, crew handling, and port coordination at Dar es Salaam and Mombasa. Berthing, inward manifest and port health — covered before the pilot boards.
Warehousing
Bonded and non-bonded warehousing, ICD handling, and inventory control. For project cargo and FMCG — with weighbridge and 24/7 security.
Marine Insurance
Cargo cover from port to final destination, including war and strike clauses where needed. Claims followed up until paid — not just sold.
Project Management
Mining, construction and energy logistics — heavy lift, abnormal loads, cross-border convoy permits and site delivery management.
Lusaka
Lusaka Central — Customs and transit handling for Zambian copperbelt corridor and DRC transit.
Kigali SEZ
Special Economic Zone — Bonded clearance, distribution and last-mile to DRC border crossings.
