Ground Handlers · Africa
Integrated warehouse management and ULD operations for GHAs serving multiple airline customers from a single platform.
Across Kenya, Ground Handling Agents run cargo management on infrastructure that wasn't built for how air cargo moves today. Africa represents the fastest growth opportunity in air cargo driven by the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA).
Operators routing through Johannesburg (JNB) and Cairo (CAI) — carriers in the class of RwandAir Cargo, Kenya Airways Cargo — face the same pressure: more volume, tighter slots, and zero tolerance for a load plan that leaves revenue on the ramp. Belli's cargo management targets a measurable outcome — 12% revenue recovery — and goes live in 10 days for teams operating in Kenya, not 12–18 months. Kenya deployments inherit the same SLA.
The friction is specific, not generic.
The same operation, re-platformed:
Running cargo in Kenya means living inside its rules, not around them. Africa represents the fastest growth opportunity in air cargo driven by the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA).
That shows up in the details: limited digital infrastructure requiring offline-capable operations; afCFTA driving intra-Africa cargo growth; and perishable cargo growth (cut flowers from Kenya/Ethiopia). Kenya adds its own layer — simba/iCMS customs system. Nairobi as East Africa hub. Dominant perishable exports. Carriers such as RwandAir Cargo, Kenya Airways Cargo, EgyptAir Cargo operate against exactly these conditions.
Replatforming usually means a year of risk; with Belli it is a ten-day project plan. Week one maps your data, rates, and EDI partners at Johannesburg (JNB). Operators train on their own cargo, so day one feels familiar. A named engineer stays attached after launch — reachable 24/7, not via a portal.
The decision comes down to one question for Kenya operators. The status quo is expensive precisely because it looks free. The platform targets a concrete number: 12% revenue recovery. The benchmark has already shifted; the only question is when you match it. Book the demo and get a go-live date in the same conversation.
