Cargo to Nigeria from Gravesend

Cargo to Nigeria collected across Gravesend and Gravesham — Northfleet, Riverview Park, Kings Farm and Meopham.

Gravesham — Gravesend, Northfleet and the villages to the south — is home to 1,873 Nigeria-born residents, the third largest Nigerian community in Kent after Medway and Dartford. We collect across the borough and ship to our Lagos office, or on to any of the 36 states.

Gravesend sits on the Thames directly opposite Tilbury, and with Dartford and Medway it makes up the stretch of north Kent where most of the county's Nigerian families live. Many moved out along the A2 from Woolwich, Abbey Wood and Erith.

From our Dagenham base it is a run through the Dartford Crossing and along the A2, and we collect across the whole of Gravesham — barrels, boxes, parcels and vehicles, by air or sea.

Population figures on this page are from the ONS 2021 Census (country of birth: Nigeria).

Gravesend borders Dartford to the west. If you are in Greenhithe, Swanscombe or Ebbsfleet Valley you are on our Dartford page — same service, same prices.
