Short Title: The Power of Pre-Shipment Inspections
Summary:
Importing goods without verifying quality and compliance can be a costly mistake. Here's why pre-shipment inspections are a smart move for every Kenyan importer.
When importing goods, especially from overseas suppliers, you're often making decisions based on trust. But what happens when goods arrive at the port and don’t meet Kenyan Bureau of Standards (KEBS) requirements? You face delays, penalties, or worse — rejected consignments.
That’s where pre-shipment inspection comes in. By verifying product quality, quantity, labeling, and documentation before shipping, importers reduce risk, save time, and ensure smooth clearance at destination ports.
At ASK Inspector Ben, we inspect goods at the country of origin and issue detailed compliance reports, helping importers meet KEBS, KRA, and customs standards without hassle.
Key Takeaway: Don’t import blind. Pre-shipment inspection is your best insurance.
