Your cargo, protected. From factory floor to your front door.
Mufasa Insurance Agencies arranges marine & goods in transit across Bungoma County - Bungoma, Webuye, Kimilili, Chwele and every town in between. Bungoma sits on the Mount Elgon slopes with sugarcane, maize and coffee farming, the Webuye paper mill complex, and the Malaba corridor carrying most of Kenya's transit freight into Uganda. With manufacturing, commercial farming and long-distance freight driving the local economy, the cover that makes sense here is specific to Bungoma. We are IRA-licensed, we place with Kenya's major underwriters, and quotes come back the same working day over WhatsApp.
Why Bungoma Is Different
Goods moving through Bungoma Town and Webuye are exposed on the road as much as at sea. Cover written warehouse-to-warehouse keeps the consignment insured for the whole journey, not just the sea leg.
Kenyan motor cover stops at the border, and so does an inland transit policy that was not written to the final destination. Tell us where the goods actually end up and we will make sure the wording reaches it - plus a COMESA Yellow Card if your own vehicle crosses.
Kenyan law requires imported cargo to be insured with a locally licensed insurer, and clearing agents will ask for the certificate. Arranging it before the vessel sails is cheaper and safer than doing it under pressure at the last minute.

Send us a WhatsApp message or call +254 117 435 865 with the basic details of what you need covered. We come back with quotes from several underwriters the same working day, you pick one, pay by M-Pesa or bank transfer, and we issue the documents. Nothing requires you to travel to Nairobi.
We are based in Runda, Nairobi and serve Bungoma County remotely, which is how most insurance in Kenya is now arranged. Quotes, payment and document issue all happen by phone, WhatsApp and email. When there is a claim, assessors are appointed locally in Bungoma.
Same day in most cases. Motor certificates, travel certificates and medical cover notes are issued electronically as soon as payment reflects, so you are covered before the documents reach your inbox.
Regular importers can take out an Open Cover policy that automatically covers all shipments under agreed terms, much more convenient than issuing a new policy per shipment.
ICC A is the broadest cover (all risks). ICC B covers specific perils like fire, collision, and flooding. ICC C is the most restricted, covering only major casualties. We recommend ICC A for most shipments.
