Oximio Achieves Customs Agent License in Kenya, Enhancing Efficiency and Cost-Savings for Clients

Oximio is delighted to announce that it has obtained a Customs Agent License for its depot in Kenya, effective September 2025. This latest milestone means that Oximio can further enhance its services with greater operational control to clients across East Africa.

With this new license, Oximio now has the capability to manage its own import and export customs actions, eliminating the need for third-party involvement and giving the company full control over shipments.

The immediate benefits to clients are substantial. With the ability to pre-clear shipments before arrival, Oximio will significantly speed up the customs process, resulting in faster delivery times and increased operational efficiency. By streamlining processes and reducing costs, the new license will improve profitability for clients.

With fewer entities involved in customer shipments, this will help minimise delays and potential damage to their shipments.

Celeste de Vries, Regional Director of Sub-Saharan Africa, said “we are thrilled to have secured the Customs Agent License in Kenya, a significant achievement that marks a new chapter in our commitment to delivering exceptional service to our clients. This license gives us complete control over the customs process, ensuring faster, more reliable, and cost-effective solutions. It’s a win for our clients, our business, and the entire region. We’re proud to now be able to offer an even higher level of service and continue to grow our reputation as a leader in the supply chain solutions industry for clinical trials.”

As Oximio continues to expand its capabilities in East Africa, we remain focused on providing innovative solutions that meet the unique needs of the clinical trial industry. This new Customs Agent License strengthens our ability to offer a competitive edge in terms of both operational efficiency and cost-effectiveness.

Clients and prospective customers can be confident that with Oximio, their shipments will be handled with the utmost care, professionalism, and speed, as we manage the entire customs process in-house.
