Kenya’s regional reputation for logistics is in doubt as congestion has hit its main port. Operational problems at Nairobi’s Inland Container Dept have caused issues along the transport chain. The government has ordered that 40% of cargo arriving at the port of Mombasa must be moved by rail to the depot – which has caused significant congestion.
