OnePort 365 Secures Capital to Expand B2B Freight Logistics Platform
Digital freight forwarder OnePort 365 has closed a new funding round to optimize cross-border logistics and expand its digital trade platform into East Africa.
Lagos, Nigeria — Digital B2B freight forwarding startup OnePort 365 has closed a new funding round in February 2026. The capital will be used to enhance its digital logistics management platform, optimize warehouse integration, and expand operations into key trade corridors in East Africa. The round confirms the growing demand for digital supply chain orchestration.
OnePort 365 provides an all-in-one digital freight forwarding platform that helps African businesses book, track, and manage their ocean and land freight. The company monetizes through freight margins, customs clearance fees, and cargo insurance commissions. Headquartered in Lagos, the platform serves major import-export enterprises.
The funding will support the integration of advanced customs-clearance automation and real-time GPS tracking systems across inland haulage routes. By coordinating customs paperwork and shipping lines on a single dashboard, OnePort 365 reduces port delays. The company plans to launch services in Mombasa, Kenya, to capture East African port flows.
Global shipping volatility and local port delays make freight logistics in Africa incredibly complex and expensive. By digitalizing shipping documentation and tracking, platforms like OnePort 365 bring transparency to B2B shipping. This aggregation of shipping demand allows them to negotiate wholesale rates with international liners, passing savings to local merchants.
OnePort 365 is addressing the massive infrastructure bottleneck of port clearance and cross-border shipping in Sub-Saharan Africa. By consolidating customs tracking and land transport, the company builds sticky relationships with large-scale B2B importers who suffer from unpredictable port demurrage fees. Investors should focus on how the platform manages the working capital requirements of upfront shipping line payments before client reimbursement. The opportunity lies in integrating trade finance options directly into their booking dashboard.
