Afrimash provides various shipping methods. These methods vary based on the class of the item being shipped, the weight, and/or the customer’s choice at checkout.
We currently offer three shipping options: Local Pickup shipping, Economy shipping, and Convenient shipping options.
Local Pickup is the shipping option that gives our customers affordable delivery fees with flexible control over the pickup of their orders.
This means that the customer can pick up his or her package from a local road transport park or an agreed pickup point close to his/her home or office address. We ensure swift and secure deliveries through commercial vehicles from third-party transporters and road transport agencies across Nigeria.
We also make sure the third-party transporters are supplied with the contact details of the customers for communication and a smooth delivery process.
For this type of delivery method, we always encourage our customers to get ready to pick up their items before the drivers get to the agreed pickup point or park.
Local pickup is suitable for customers who are ready to pick up their items within 24 hours after order confirmation. Local pickup is also suitable for customers who are close to central locations and motor parks as this gives them easy access to the pickup of their goods.
Economy Shipping is a convenient and affordable delivery option we operate and manage in partnership with GIG logistics services which allows our customers to pick up their order conveniently at any GIG Office across Nigeria.
Customers can also track their shipments online to know when to pick up their packages. This affords our customers comfortable and timely pick up of their packages at designated GIG Offices across Nigeria.

Economy Shipping is suitable for busy customers who may not have the time to pick up their packages immediately. However, we expect customers to pick up their packages within a reasonable time frame.
Economy Shipping is also suitable for moderately fragile items with breakable parts and other fitting parts that need proper packaging and care.
Our convenient shipping is provided in partnership with DHL Express, such that, customers get doorstep delivery of their packages.
As personalized delivery can enhance customer experience and increase brand loyalty when used as an integrated part of the customer’s purchasing journey, we have included this option to service customers who wish to have their ordered packages personally delivered anywhere in the world.
This option especially appeals to customers who wish to bypass the rigors of local pickups at car-parks or the use of pickup stations. It is suitable for non-weight and fragile items with smaller parts and fittings. Products shipped in this category are appropriately packaged, labeled, handled with extra care, and offer unique tracking solutions.
The Convenient shipping basically features 2 to 5 days delivery window period (working days) unless otherwise stated. This shipping option also offers customers the ease to track the status of their orders from dispatch to delivery with constantly updated reports on the DHL website.
