The Maina Group was established in 1979. Our aim was to offer a comprehensive
solution in the movement of goods via Airfreight and Seafreight. We understood that
the industry required a company whose emphasis was on a personal, tailor-made and
bespoke service which catered for individual requirements.
By maintaining the highest level of customer service the company evolved and successfully
added Maina Imports Ltd in 1995. With a vast network of customers Maina was now able to
offer the expertise in undertaking customs clearance procedures from around the world. With a
direct link to HM customs CHIEF network the company has surpassed all expectations giving us
a strong edge in a highly competitive market.
Due to the exceptional growth of Maina Imports Ltd and an even more focused understanding
of our customers, Maina Couriers Ltd was formed in 2004. With this addition Maina were now
able to offer a complete one stop solution offering International express deliveries for smaller
parcels worldwide.
“The Maina Group of Companies” now has two bonded warehouses with a branch office in
Leicester. In addition to this there are also offices in India, Kenya, Uganda and the UAE.
Our West London warehouse is strategically located close to London Heathrow Airport,
enabling us to manage all your import and export requirements, be it airfreight, seafreight,
roadfreight, import clearance or express courier.

5. Air Export is an essential component to any international logistics network. Maina can
offer choice and flexibility over the types of services available when sending freight by
air.
For more urgent consignments, normally over 30 kilo’s, airfreight is an excellent option. The
charges for the delivery of your goods are dependent upon the weight and size of your
shipment. There are normally two types of freight services used which are “door to door” and
“airport to airport”.
Over the years Maina Freight have established long term relationships with industry partners
and are firmly positioned to negotiate the best possible rates on your behalf. We have an
extensive network of agents who are able to provide quotations quickly and also facilitate large
consignments at short notice.
As a registered agent with IATA & BIFA we are able to advise our customers of up to date
industry related regulations and guidance on technical matters. We can also assist you with
routing options and document preparation.
Our technology driven solutions, expertise in international airfreight and aim in providing
outstanding customer service makes exporting with Maina a pleasant experience.

6. Seafreight is the most cost-effective way of sending large volumes of goods
internationally. Delivery times may vary between 3-5 weeks depending on the port of
destination.
Up until recently, there was little visibility of seafreight services in the UK and the industry was
typically associated with larger export consignments. Now this service is also being used for
smaller movements, providing a cost effective solution.
FCL’S can both be loaded from our address or directly from the shipper’s premises. Planning
ahead is the key as seafreight delivery times are naturally longer than other modes of transport.
The total weight which can be loaded into any container is 22 tonne as per UK RHA regulations.
It is important to package your goods correctly to minimise the risk of damage in transit. We are
able to offer packing, crating and palletisation services to help with this.
Maina Seafreight provides a total service covering not only the ocean freight movement of your
goods, but also customs clearance and tariff classification, all operated by our in house team of
international seafreight specialists.
Please email us on seaexports@maina.com

( Inside Length X Width X Height of Containers in metres)
> 20ft Container 5.8 x 2.3 x 2.35
> 40ft Container 12 x 2.3 x 2.35
> 40 HQ (High Cube) Container 12 x 2.3 x 2.6
To give an idea of how much a container can hold we have chosen to use vehicles as an example.
In a 20ft container you can fit one saloon car or one 4 X 4 vehicle. In a 40ft/40ft HQ container
you can fit 3 saloon cars or two 4 X 4 vehicles. Once loaded there will still be additional space
for any loose items you may wish to load.
The most common way of sending goods via seafreight is through the use of containers
which come in three different sizes:
> FCL (Full Container Load)
The customer benefits from having the whole container
> LCL (Less Container Load)
A more cost effective solution where a customer can use part of a container
> Reefer Containers
A refrigerated container for temperature sensitive cargo
> RORO (Roll On Roll Off)
This service is used for “out of gauge cargo” i.e. buses, trucks and large machine spares which
are rolled on and off the ship. These items are usually unable to fit into a container.
Containers can be sent via the following modes:
