Cost is by far the most important question for importing businesses, and the answer to this question is not straightforward. There are many factors that influence the cost of importing goods, including the mode of transportation, the weight and bulk of your goods, and even the time of year. It is possible, however, to calculate the overall cost of your goods. Generally, sea freight costs approximately $350 to $500 per cubic meter. Air freight will be more expensive and usually measured by weight, so you may have to pay more than ground freight It costs between $5 and $7 per kilogram. Despite being faster than regular air freight, express services will also cost more than regular air freight.

As an importer from China to Kenya, what is the first step I should take?

No matter where a business is located, it is imperative that it understands the market in which it operates. It is essential that you have a clear understanding of what you are selling if you are looking to sell your goods. Additionally, you should be aware of the level of demand. A product that you like may be a viable business, but does it have enough demand to be sustainable? A market research study can also help you determine who the buyers are for certain products; when you start an import business, it is crucial that you are able to connect with these consumers. The variations and modes of the goods you are importing should also be considered. For instance, if you are importing bicycles, you need to take into account the fact that bicycles are available in a wide range of ranges, brands and quality levels. A sufficient amount of market research will enable you to determine which type of the chosen good you wish to import. Additionally, this will assist you in choosing the factory/retailer in China that can best meet your requirements. Moreover, you will need to determine a strategy to sell the product at a time that is appropriate for your overhead. Importing a product that does not sell well is not a good idea.
