Empowering Africa’s Trade: How Logidoo’s AI Tools are transforming shipping for businesses.
Logidoo, the pan-African logistics platform, has introduced two new digital tools to make
international shipping faster, easier, and more transparent for African businesses and individuals. The
new features; a volumetric weight simulator and a customs duties simulator; are designed to remove
common barriers to cross-border trade.
“These tools tackle the uncertainty and complexity that often discourages African businesses from
trading globally,
”
said Logidoo CEO, T amsir Ousmane T raore.
“Now, users can get accurate shipping
estimates in seconds, no specialised knowledge or long consultations required.
”
Powered by Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML), these tools are especially helpful
for e-commerce sellers, importers, and small enterprises that need quick, reliable quotes to plan
effectively. They remove the delays and guesswork often involved in traditional shipping processes.
With just a photo, the volumetric weight simulator calculates the dimensional weight of a package,
helping users get precise shipping quotes. Complementing this, the customs duties simulator allows
users to estimate import charges by entering a product description or Harmonised System (HS) code,
considering volume and insurance requirements.
“For too long, small businesses have lacked access to reliable shipping estimates,
” he added.
“Our
simulators offer the kind of real-time cost clarity that only big companies used to have—now available
to anyone with a smartphone.
”
Now live at logidoo.co, the simulators are available to users across West, Central, and North
Africa—including in Senegal, Côte d’Ivoire, Mali, Tunisia, Benin, and Cameroon.
This launch builds on Logidoo
’
s broader mission to make global trade more accessible through digital
innovation. The company is also known for its groupage shipping services, which allow businesses to
share container space and cut costs.
“We
’re breaking down barriers to trade with practical, easy-to-use tools,
” T raore said.
“When small
businesses can see what shipping will cost, they
’re more empowered to grow and explore new markets.
”
Industry experts say these tools could mark a major step forward in improving Africa
’
s logistics
infrastructure through smart, accessible technology.
