About us

As a representative agent, African Desk offers support to forwarders through different platforms and applications. We have a global network of experienced agents who can handle issues specific to each and every country.

African Desk implements and supports the electronic tracking of goods through the Electronic Cargo Tracking Application. This application simplifies the data flow and management of maritime transport. An Electronic Cargo Tracking Note (e-CTN) is created in order to enable monitoring all cargo towards their destination. This results in a better structure and control in maritime commercial traffic. We support users of the e-CTN system and also check the information in this system.

In addition, the experts of African Desk have expertise in the area of the single window system. Through this window the transport of goods is made much easier, because all stakeholders are brought into virtual contact with each other throughout the whole trading process. The online platform also improves the logistical efficiency because transactions are paperless and done simultaneously.
