What I'm looking for

I'm looking to contribute my customs clearance, freight forwarding, port operations, procurement, and stock-control experience in shipping and logistics operations.

I manage end-to-end customs clearance and freight forwarding at DHOW C&F Logistics, coordinating with port authorities, customs agencies, and shipping lines to accelerate cargo clearance and container releases.

I prepare customs documentation and declarations, track shipments, and provide clients with real-time logistics and transit updates while maintaining compliance with legal regulations.

Previously, I managed procurement and supply-chain activities for premium automotive spare parts at Sialine Investment Limited, including stock control, inventory tracking, warehouse shelf optimization, vendor listings, and procurement documentation.

My port operations background includes vessel documentation, arrival notices, docking and inward clearance, delivery orders, invoicing, cargo tallying, and customs-shed goods allocation. I hold a Bachelor Degree in Shipping and Logistics Management and a Certificate in East African Customs Clearing and Freight Forwarding Practice.
