KAHL and Lift Cargo Partner to Improve Efficiencies in Cool Chain Management

Speaking in Nairobi, Kenya, the Acting General Manager, Peter Musola, said, "The partnership will leverage KAHL's state-of-the-art cool chain facilities alongside Lift Cargo's extensive client base. Together, we will create a seamless cool chain that minimises spoilage, reduces waste, and enhances the overall quality of perishable goods, elevating product freshness for our customers." 

The horticulture sector is one of the largest contributors to Kenya's economy, generating approximately Ksh157 billion ($1.29 billion) in annual export earnings, according to the Agriculture and Food Authority (AFA). Flowers alone account for more than 70% of these exports, with Europe serving as the primary market. 

"Kenya's horticultural sector is one of the most vital components of our economy, and we are committed to supporting it through innovative logistics solutions," added Mr Musola.  

"We are thrilled to partner with KAHL said Mr. Silas Kashindi, Managing Director of Lift Cargo Limited. This partnership with KAHL will not only improve the efficiency of our supply chain but also empower local growers by providing them with better access to markets and enhanced value for their products." 

Both companies are deeply committed to continuous improvement and innovation in the perishable goods supply chain. This commitment ensures that consumers receive the freshest products possible and paves the way for exciting advancements in the industry. This milestone reflects KAHL's vision to be East Africa's leading fresh cargo handling facility, continuing to deliver world-class service with speed, traceability, and care.
