Send a parcel from France to Kenya

Let us help you find the cheapest way to ship a package to Kenya.

There is a lot to consider when preparing the international shipping of a parcel to Kenya, home to a population of over 44 million, parcels can be imported from around the globe via our global shipping marketplace to major cities including Nairobi, Mombasa, and Kisumu. Until 1963, Kenya was under the umbrella of British leadership. The country became independent at that time but was largely dominated by a single political party with strong leadership. Surprisingly, Kenya actually has the highest GDP in the immediate region. 

Is it easy to send a parcel to Kenya?

Located on the equator, Kenya has a beautiful and mild climate with stunning landscapes, making it a mecca for tourism. This industry accounts for about two-thirds of the GDP, with a good portion of visitors coming from Britain and surrounding European nations. Agriculture remains a major part of Kenya's economy, with the country producing major crops of tea, coffee, flowers, corn, cotton, sugar cane and tropical fruits. Kenya also has strong financial and manufacturing sectors. As an economic powerhouse in East Africa, Kenya is becoming a more likely shipping destination for eCommerce goods, with ever improving technology and reliable cross-border courier services providing delivery. Kenya’s eCommerce market is set for major growth in the next few years as mobile takes a hold and shopping habits change.
