ProCharter opens air cargo corridors in East Africa

East Africa’s airfreight network has been given a fresh boost as ProCharter opens four new scheduled cargo lanes out of Nairobi, strengthening regional connectivity at a time of ongoing pressure on traditional routing. The new weekly freighter services link Nairobi with Mogadishu, Kismayo, Djibouti and Juba, offering direct uplift for consolidation and full charter shipments. The move is aimed at improving transit reliability for e-commerce, FMCG and time-sensitive cargo moving across East Africa and into wider Europe and Middle East trade flows. Positioning Nairobi as a central consolidation hub, the operation is designed to cut dependence on indirect routing and improve speed-to-market for regional shippers. Each lane will operate one round trip per week, giving forwarders and exporters a more predictable scheduling base in a market often defined by capacity swings. The expansion reflects growing demand for faster intra-African connectivity, with airfreight operators increasingly leaning on scheduled regional networks rather than ad hoc charter solutions to stabilise supply chains.
