Partner with the Future of Freight in East & Central Africa.
CargoLink is building the digital infrastructure that connects shippers, transporters, and freight forwarders across one of the most important growth regions in Africa.
We're creating a trusted network around Dar es Salaam port and the surrounding corridors, bringing transparency, reliability, and technology to a market that still largely runs on phone calls and spreadsheets.

This page is designed for investors and partners interested in learning more about the CargoLink opportunity.
A high-growth corridor, still largely offline.
Trade flowing through Dar es Salaam and into surrounding land-linked countries continues to grow, but the coordination of trucks, loads, and documentation is still heavily manual. This creates friction, inefficiencies, and limited visibility for shippers and carriers.
CargoLink is building a digital layer on top of these real-world operations—connecting capacity, routes, and data into a single platform designed specifically for the realities of the region.
Our goal is to make it as simple to move a truckload from Dar to Lusaka, Lilongwe, or Goma as it is to book a flight—while still respecting the complexities of border posts, weighbridges, and local regulations.
Macro tailwinds
- Growing trade volumes through Dar es Salaam and regional corridors.
- Ongoing investment in infrastructure, ports, and roads.
- Increased smartphone penetration and comfort with digital tools.
Why now
The timing is right for a regionally-focused, locally-informed freight platform that can scale across lanes and borders.
CargoLink is intentionally starting with well-understood corridors and partners, then expanding as product-market fit deepens and network effects build.
Building the network, one lane at a time.
CargoLink is focused on building a durable network between shippers, carriers, and freight forwarders— supported by technology that fits the realities of East & Central African logistics.
