AdeKargo shows exactly how much space is open in shared containers at Nigeria's ports right now — posted by verified consolidators, claimed in Naira, confirmed on WhatsApp.
Importers and traders claim open space. Freight forwarders and consolidators list what they've got. Same board, two doors in.
Global freight platforms and the WhatsApp-and-spreadsheet status quo both leave a hole at the Nigerian port level. That hole is the whole business.
| AdeKargo | Global platforms (Cogoport, Container xChange) |
Status quo (forwarder + WhatsApp) |
|
|---|---|---|---|
| Nigerian port-level visibility | Apapa, Tin Can, Onne, Lekki by name | Regional/global lanes only | Trapped in one forwarder's book |
| Space shown live | CBM count updates in real time | Quote-request, not live inventory | Whiteboards, spreadsheets, phone calls |
| Confirmation channel | Push + WhatsApp (Twilio) + Email (Resend) | Email only, slow turnaround | Voice notes, easy to lose track |
| Pricing currency | Naira, local payment rails | USD, international payment friction | Negotiated per relationship, opaque |
| Who's verified | Consolidators vetted before listing | Self-service, broad global pool | Whoever you already know |
Space fills fast. Choose how AdeKargo reaches you the moment a lane you're watching opens up or a booking confirms.
