Who We Are
ASF Bonded Terminals operates a customs‑bonded terminal and warehousing facility in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, Nigeria. We help importers store goods under customs supervision, prepare shipments, and pay import duties when the goods actually leave bond for local use or move them onward for re‑export.
Our role is simple: keep your cargo secure, compliant, and moving without tying up cash before you need to.
Our Heritage
ASF Bonded Terminals grew out of Air Sea Freighters, established in 1998. We learned the work the hard way: at the quayside, in the yard, and on the road between Port Harcourt, Lagos, and Abuja. Day after day, we moved what mattered and kept listening to what importers actually needed.
Over the years, the cargo got more complex. We handled project moves for Oil and Gas, high-volume FMCG flows, critical health and pharma shipments, and diplomatic and NGO consignments. With every job, one theme kept coming back: customers needed secure storage under customs control, room to prepare cargo properly, and the ability to pay duties when the timing made sense.
ASF Bonded Terminals is our answer to that need. It is the natural next step for a company built in Nigeria for Nigeria, giving importers a bonded space that is compliant, secure, and practical for the way the region really works.
As an extension of Air Sea Freighters, we carry forward a simple playbook: compliance first, security always, and practical problem-solving. We combine big-company capability with a local, hands-on approach, built on authentic relationships with stakeholders, a clear understanding of Nigerian infrastructure realities, and the discipline to keep cargo moving even when conditions are tough. ASF Bonded Terminals is that experience, concentrated into a bonded facility designed for today’s importer..
Our Vision
To be Nigeria’s most trusted bonded terminal partner the benchmark for compliance, speed, and visibility connecting Port Harcourt to the country and the sub-region with safe, predictable, and digitally transparent operations.
Our Mission
To keep Nigeria’s imports secure, compliant, and moving. We provide bonded
warehousing and container handling that let customers pay import taxes later (at
release), reduce port dwell time, and prepare cargo for local delivery or
re-export with clear guidance every step of the way.
