Importing a Car From Japan: Most Kenyans looking to import vehicles directly from Japan, Europe or Thailand inevitably face the big dilemma of spotting and getting the right import agent.
This is because the vehicle importation field has it share of frauds and scams. But when looking to import a car, you no longer need to sweat over these fears. This is because you can import directly through the help of the Co-operative Bank.
“We have formed a joint partnership with World Navi Co. Ltd, a leading Japanese exporter of used units to Africa and Europe, to enable Kenyans to import second-hand cars,” says the bank in a statement to Bizna Kenya. This partnership guarantees buyers one hundred per cent safe and reliable vehicle importation. This includes three months warranty on the engine and transmission, accident free and genuine mileage certificates and zero risk of stolen parts or non-performance.
