Cargo to Nigeria collected across Medway — Chatham, Gillingham & Rochester.
Medway has 3,993 Nigeria-born residents — the largest Nigerian community in the South East and thirteenth largest we serve. We collect across Chatham, Gillingham, Rochester and Strood, and deliver to our Lagos office or on to any of the 36 states.
The Medway towns hold the largest Nigerian community in the South East, spread across Chatham, Gillingham, Rochester and Strood rather than concentrated in one place.
It is also one of the areas where we see least competition from other UK–Nigeria cargo operators, most of whom stay within London.
Population figures on this page are from the ONS 2021 Census (country of birth: Nigeria).

About Medway
Medway's community has grown substantially over the past decade, helped by more affordable housing than London and good rail links back into it — a pattern we see across north Kent generally.
The Universities at Medway campus adds a student element, and Chatham and Gillingham are where most of our collections here happen.
What people here usually send
- Family barrels of food and household goods
- Larger household consignments — more space here than in London
