NAS Nairobi Expands Operations with New Office at JKIA KQ Cargo Centre

Network Airline Services (NAS) has relocated its Nairobi office to a larger, modern facility at the KQ Cargo Centre Building in Jomo Kenyatta International Airport’s (JKIA) bustling district. The move, announced on March 27, 2026, accommodates the company’s growing team and supports expanded air cargo handling amid rising East African freight demands.

The new space offers enhanced operational workflows, more room for staff, and proximity to JKIA, Kenya’s primary logistics hub. JKIA currently processes around nine million passengers annually, exceeding its original 7.5 million capacity, with projections reaching 22 million by 2045 and freight volumes doubling from 407,000 tons in 2025 to over 860,000 tons. Sarah Wangui, NAS Nairobi Managing Director, stated, “We are excited to have finally taken this long-awaited step into a more spacious, modern office to provide our growing team with the space it needs to offer our customers in Kenya the best possible service.” The relocation was inaugurated alongside Andy King, NAS VP for Middle East and Africa.

This expansion aligns with NAS’s broader African growth, including a strategic partnership with Siginon Aviation that added Nairobi and Eldoret airports to its network. Over the past year, NAS launched operations at 16 new airports across Africa, operating in over 55 sites continent-wide, the Middle East, and South Asia. It provides ground handling, ramp services, and cargo management. Prior to moving, NAS donated old office furniture to a local Embakasi school.

JKIA faces infrastructure pressures, with Kenya planning a new passenger terminal, runway extensions, and upgrades funded partly by Kenya Pipeline privatization proceeds—up to 155 million dollars—to boost capacity to 63 aircraft movements per hour by 2029.
