From two yards on Mombasa Road to a fabrication floor.
We started selling ex-shipping-line units to contractors who needed cheap site storage. The fabrication side exists because clients kept asking the same follow-up question — could the box become something they could actually use?
Three yards, one fabrication floor.
Container sales and fabrication now run as one operation rather than two separate businesses handed between contractors. Roughly half of what leaves our yards each month goes out as a finished build rather than a bare shell.
How the business actually grew.
Two-yard start on Mombasa Road
Selling ex-shipping-line units to contractors needing fast, cheap site storage — no fabrication offered yet.
First conversions, on request
Repeat clients began asking us to fit out units as site offices — the fabrication side started as a favour, not a plan.
Mombasa yard opens
A second yard near the port cut lead times on coastal deliveries and gave us direct access to fresh import stock.
Fabrication becomes a standing floor
A dedicated welding and fit-out team replaced ad-hoc conversions — eight build categories, standard specs, engineered sign-off.
Nakuru yard opens
Our third yard put Rift Valley deliveries within a day's reach without routing every order back through Nairobi.
1,900+ units sold, 260+ builds delivered
Still run by people who'll answer the phone themselves — that hasn't changed since 2012.
The four people you'll actually deal with.
This trade has a scam problem — here's how we're different.
Ask for proof before you pay
A dealer who won't share clear photos, video or documentation of the exact unit, or pushes for full payment upfront, is a signal to walk away — from anyone, not just us.
Itemised, in writing
Unit price, delivery and any fabrication appear as separate lines on your quotation, not one lump figure you can't audit.
Ask about the CSC plate
On used stock, the certification plate and door seals tell you a lot about how the unit was maintained — ask us for photos of both before you decide.
