We ship air freight from the UK to Accra International Airport (ACC) — typically cheaper than airline excess baggage and faster than sea freight. We collect from your UK address, handle your UK customs export entry, and get your shipment on its way. You speak to real people who look after it from collection through to arrival.
Accra is the capital of Ghana and one of West Africa’s most stable commercial hubs, with long-standing ties to the UK.
Accra is served by Kotoka International Airport (ACC).

Choose the level that suits you — you only pay for what you need.

We handle your UK customs export entry — the declaration that allows your shipment to leave the UK. As the shipper, you are responsible for ensuring the correct export documentation is in place.
After 40 years in this trade, the same handful of things cause almost every held, delayed or re-charged shipment to Accra (ACC) — and none of them are about the freight itself. They are about declaring, coding, packing and simply knowing how an export works.
Tell us what you’re actually sending — including anything with a battery in it — and we’ll tell you how it needs to be declared, coded and packed for Accra before it leaves your door.
Tell us what you’re shipping and we’ll build you a confirmed quote — volumetric weight worked out, UK customs export entry handled.
