Shipping daily necessities to Nigeria: FAQ
Can small commodities from dozens of suppliers ship together?
Yes. Suppliers deliver to our Yiwu or Guangzhou warehouse, where we count and photograph the goods, then load them together.
Is air worth it for daily necessities?
Daily necessities are generally low in value and go by sea; small urgent restocks can go by air.
How soon can goods from Yiwu be loaded?
We load once everything has arrived. When consolidating from several suppliers, agreeing a delivery deadline avoids waiting.
Can a small amount of cosmetics go with household goods?
Cosmetics involve NAFDAC registration, so list them separately. We check and tell you whether they can go in the same shipment.
