Our Company

I take this opportunity to introduce you to the newest CFS in Nairobi, having opened its doors on 1st November 2023.

For the appreciation of brand evolution, Nairobi Inland Cargo Terminal (NICT) began operations back in June 2019 as a Peripheral Storage Facility (PSF) that supported the Nairobi’s Inland Container Depot (ICD). In 2023, a business decision was taken to change NICT’s business model from PSF to a Container Freight Station (CFS), with the new operations commencing on 1st November 2023.

We are one of the various subsidiaries of Unigroup Solutions Limited (USL) and we work closely with the importers, exporters, clearing agents, shipping lines, and government agencies in the country and the region.

Our value proposition is based on the customer-first approach. The team at NICT strives to ensure the customers get the best value for their money and time, as soon as they nominate us to be their preferred CFS.

“We do not compromise on efficiency, integrity, fast execution, and security because these are the cornerstones of our customer-centric culture at NICT.

I therefore extend our invitation to you (or your peers who are in the imports, exports, and logistics space) to partner with NICT as your preferred CFS in Nairobi.”
