Connecting the UK to Africa,
One Vehicle at a Time
We're a London-based logistics company on a mission to make vehicle shipping transparent, affordable, and completely stress-free.
Built from Frustration, Driven by Purpose
AutoFreight Global Logistics was founded after our founders experienced firsthand the pain of shipping a vehicle from the UK to West Africa. Opaque pricing, endless paperwork, and weeks of uncertainty — we knew there had to be a better way.
We set out to build a platform that automated every step of the process: DVLA data verification, port matching, customs documentation, and real-time tracking — all under one roof. What once took weeks of back-and-forth with brokers can now be completed in minutes.
Today, AutoFreight serves thousands of customers across the UK, shipping vehicles to more than 15 destinations in West, East, and Southern Africa. We're proud to be the most transparent and technology-driven vehicle freight company in the UK-Africa corridor.

Our Mission & Values
Every decision we make is guided by a commitment to transparency, reliability, and genuine care for our customers.
Transparency First
No hidden fees, no opaque brokers. Every cost is itemised and explained. You know exactly what you're paying and why.
Reliability Above All
99% of our shipments arrive on schedule. We partner only with established shipping lines and maintain rigorous vessel tracking.
Powered by Technology
From DVLA lookups to automated port assignment, our platform removes human error and speeds up every step of the process.
Customer-Centric
Every feature we build starts with a customer problem. Our team is always available to help — not just to close a sale.
Global Reach
We understand both UK and African regulatory environments. Our in-country partners ensure smooth customs clearance at every port.
Community Impact
We actively support the African diaspora in the UK, recognising the important role vehicle imports play in families and businesses across Africa.
