Ghana’s second city and the heart of the Ashanti Region. Kumasi is inland, so shipments clear at Tema Port or Kotoka in Accra and then travel onward by road — we coordinate the whole route.
Kumasi has no seaport of its own, so goods shipped from the US first arrive in the Accra area — ocean freight at Tema Port, air freight at Kotoka International Airport — and are then moved roughly 250 km north to the Ashanti Region by road. That onward leg adds a little transit time and cost versus an Accra delivery, but VoltaHaul arranges customs clearance and the trucking so your family in Kumasi receives the shipment without managing the logistics themselves.

After clearance at Tema or Kotoka, shipments travel by road to Kumasi — about a 4–5 hour drive covering roughly 250 km. We can arrange delivery into Kumasi districts such as Asokwa, Suame, Bantama, Oforikrom, and the surrounding Ashanti towns, or your consignee can collect at an agreed point. Because the onward leg is priced separately from the ocean or air rate, ask us for an all-in quote to Kumasi before you book.
There is no direct international port or major cargo airport handling in Kumasi, so shipments clear in the Accra area first — Tema Port for ocean, Kotoka for air — then travel onward by road. VoltaHaul coordinates both the clearance and the trucking so it reaches Kumasi as one arranged move.
Plan for roughly a few extra days beyond the Accra timeline to cover the ~250 km road leg and handling. Ocean typically runs about 32–40 days all-in to Kumasi, and air about 7–9 days, versus 28–35 and 5–7 to Accra.
The ocean (from $250/barrel) and air ($10/lb) freight rates are the same; the difference is the onward road transport from Tema or Accra to the Ashanti Region, which is quoted separately. Ask us for an all-in Kumasi delivery price up front.
Yes. Cars arrive by ocean at Tema Port and can then be driven or trucked to Kumasi. Rates start at $1,400 for the ocean leg depending on vehicle size and RoRo vs. container; onward transport to the Ashanti Region is arranged separately.
