Africa Global Logistics (AGL) Kenya Limited, a provider of logistics and transport solutions, has acquired a prime five-acre parcel of land in Mombasa. This strategic investment marks a significant step towards enhancing AGL’s operational capacity and further expanding its presence in Kenya’s logistics hub.

Located in a strategic area of Mombasa, the newly acquired property will strengthen AGL’s ability to optimize logistics operations, increase storage capacity, and provide seamless solutions for businesses across the region.

As East Africa’s primary port city and a crucial gateway for trade, Mombasa plays a pivotal role in facilitating the movement of goods within and beyond the continent.

“This acquisition is a fundamental part of our growth strategy. By expanding our operations in Mombasa, we are able to offer an enhanced range of services, including increased storage capacity and improved logistics solutions for our clients,” stated Mr Jason Reynard, Regional Managing Director AGL East Africa. “The acquisition certainly demonstrates our dedication to supporting Kenya’ role as a transit country and its importance in the global logistics landscape.”

Mr Reynard said AGL Kenya is dedicated to supporting Africa’s transformation by enhancing supply chain efficiency and ensuring seamless trade routes across the continent. The new facility is expected to significantly boost AGL’s operational capacity, contribute to local economic development, and create jobs, while promoting sustainable business practices.

He said the new land will be developed into a logistics hub, featuring modern warehousing and cargo handling facilities. “Sustainability will be central to the development, aligning with AGL’s commitment to environmentally responsible operations,” he added. “This acquisition reinforces AGL’s long-term investment in Kenya’s logistics infrastructure and positions the company to meet the evolving needs of the market.”
