How did Afrimed Shipping start?
Afrimed Shipping was launched in 2009 by highly experienced shipping personnel with a total collective experience in the shipping industry spanning over 40 years. The company was built to give importers and exporters one point of contact for the whole shipment, instead of coordinating separate agents for freight, customs and transport.
We believe artificial intelligence should not remain experimental technology used only in isolated tools. Instead, it should become a core operational layer that supports every department inside an organization. By combining automation, machine learning, and data infrastructure, we build systems that continuously improve performance and decision quality.
Our work focuses on real-world impact. Every solution we develop is designed to integrate deeply into business operations, delivering measurable improvements in efficiency, productivity, and scalability.
We are fully equipped to advise an importer or exporter on every detail: indenting, finance, tariff classification, marine insurance and overseas forwarding, through to the cost of clearing and delivery to a local or inland destination. Many of our clients started out as first-time importers — we guide the process and advise on how to save cost along the way.

Frequently asked
Questions people ask us
Afrimed Shipping was launched in 2009 by shipping personnel who between them had already spent years in the industry. The company was built around handling the full clearing-and-forwarding chain for a client, rather than a single link in it.
We advise on and manage indenting, finance, tariff classification, marine insurance, and overseas forwarding, through to the cost of clearing and delivery to a local or inland destination — the full sequence from origin to your door.
