🇰🇪 Kenya and 🇪🇹 Ethiopia: Two Strong Flower Origins
Kenya and Ethiopia are two of the most important flower-producing countries in Africa.
Kenya is internationally known for premium roses, strong stems, good vase life, beautiful colours and professional export farms. Nairobi is a major flower export hub with experienced freight forwarders, cold-chain handling and regular airfreight options.
Ethiopia is also becoming a strong origin for fresh cut flowers, with good-quality roses, attractive varieties and interesting export possibilities. Addis Ababa can be a useful hub depending on the destination and airline connection.
At Lisa’s Flowers Export, we do not choose the origin randomly. We check what is best for each client and each shipment.
The best origin may depend on:
✈️ Airline connections
🌹 Flower availability
🎨 Requested colours and varieties
📏 Stem length and grade
📦 Order volume and number of boxes
💰 Freight cost
⏰ Urgency of the shipment
📍 Destination country and airport
Sometimes Kenya is the best option. Sometimes Ethiopia may offer better availability or better logistics. We help clients compare the possibilities and choose the most practical solution.

✈️ Nairobi and Addis Ababa as Flower Export Hubs
For many West African destinations, Nairobi is an important flower export hub. Kenya has a strong flower export industry, experienced farms, freight forwarders and air cargo connections.
Addis Ababa is also an important hub for Ethiopian flower exports and regional air transport. Depending on the country and airline route, shipping from Ethiopia may be an interesting option for roses and other available flowers.
Lisa’s Flowers Export checks the best possible route depending on the destination country, order volume, product availability and transport cost.
For example, flower shipments may be checked for destinations such as:
📍 Lagos and Abuja, Nigeria
📍 Accra, Ghana

📍 Monrovia, Liberia
📍 Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire
📍 Dakar, Senegal
📍 Banjul, The Gambia
📍 Conakry, Guinea
📦 Export Support and Documentation

Depending on the country of destination, documents may include:
📄 Phytosanitary certificate
🧾 Commercial invoice
📦 Packing list
✈️ Air Waybill
✅ Import permit or other documents required by the destination country
Lisa’s Flowers Export can coordinate with suppliers, freight partners and buyers to help prepare the export documentation needed for the shipment.
