Shipping goods from China to South Sudan can be complex, but with the right logistics partner, it becomes a smooth and predictable process. At Wakah Logistics, we specialize in cost-effective and reliable sea freight solutions connecting China’s manufacturing hubs to South Sudan’s growing markets. Whether you’re a business importing in bulk or an individual moving goods, we provide end-to-end shipping services that save you time, money, and stress.


Why Choose Sea Freight from China to South Sudan

When moving goods over long distances, especially in large quantities, sea freight remains the most cost-efficient and dependable mode of transport. Businesses choose ocean shipping for several reasons:

1. Cost Efficiency for Bulk Cargo
Sea freight is more affordable than air freight when shipping heavy or large quantities of goods. You pay per cubic meter (CBM) or per container, making it ideal for high-volume imports.

2. High Capacity
From 20-foot to 40-foot containers, sea freight can handle large loads that simply can’t be shipped economically by air.

3. Versatility
You can ship almost anything – from heavy machinery and vehicles to textiles and electronics – with containerized cargo.

4. Safety for Goods
Sea transport offers secure handling for fragile or hazardous goods, with special container options such as refrigerated or open-top units.

How Sea Freight from China to South Sudan Works

Here’s how our process ensures your goods move seamlessly from the supplier’s warehouse in China to your final delivery point in South Sudan:

 Booking and Supplier Coordination
You provide cargo details and supplier information, and we arrange pickup from the supplier’s location in China.

Cargo Consolidation (If Needed)
For smaller shipments, we combine your goods with others in a shared container (LCL), reducing your shipping costs.

Sea Transport to Mombasa
Your cargo is loaded at the Chinese port and shipped to Mombasa, Kenya – the main gateway to South Sudan.

Customs Clearance at Mombasa
Our team handles port documentation, customs inspections, and clearance to ensure no delays.

Inland Transport to South Sudan
We transport your goods overland, using our trusted trucking network, through Kenya or Uganda into South Sudan.

Final Delivery
We deliver your goods to your specified location in South Sudan, whether in Juba or other major towns.
