Industrialists: Your equipment in Africa without delay
Are you a player in the maritime or mining industry, the automobile industry, aeronautics or an engineer in charge of maintenance? You know how crucial it is to maintain a regular flow of spare parts and equipment to your partners in West Africa. But standard shipping times, whether by sea or air, can often jeopardize your operations due to their slowness.
On Board Courier to West Africa
In the face of this issue, there’s a little known yet effective solution: the On Board Courier, also known as OBC. This fast air transport option involves sending a courier with the cargo on a commercial flight departing from France to West Africa, covering key destinations such as Dakar, Conakry, Abidjan, Accra, and Lagos, among others.
A little-known but effective solution exists: the on-board courier service (On Board Courier).
A common misconception is that sending an onboard courier to Africa is hampered by passport, visa or customs issues. However, this is far from being the case. With the appropriate documents, an experienced courier is fully capable of quickly and safely delivering urgent goods to Senegal, Guinea, Ivory Coast, Nigeria, offshore Cape Verde and other countries in the region.
Please note that some potentially dangerous items may be subject to restrictions, but this also applies to other international destinations.
