European supplier handovers
European freight planning begins at the supplier’s named collection point. Sheffield coordinates accepted origin handling through overseas partners and connects it with Kenya arrival preparation. Include export-document responsibility and loading availability in the first enquiry.
For several European suppliers, identify each collection appointment and the point where the goods will be consolidated. Keep the supplier invoices traceable in the combined file and confirm how each origin handover is included in the quotation.

Questions about this service
Should each supplier send a separate packing list?
Yes. Separate supplier records make collection quantities and commercial lines traceable. Where goods are consolidated, agree how the combined shipment file will reference each supplier.
What should Sheffield receive before preparing this shipment?
Send each supplier’s invoice, packing list, address and ready date, together with the Kenya consignee details. This allows the team to review separate collections and any agreed consolidation before pricing the complete route.
