Premier Vehicle
Importation.
Reimagined.
Tuminion Automobile Limited is a premier car importation company based in Nairobi, Kenya. We source vehicles directly from Japan, UK and Thailand auction houses, handling every stage of the import process — from auction bidding and sea freight to Mombasa port clearance and final delivery anywhere in Kenya.
What separates us from other Kenyan importers is simple: both our directors are fully Japanese-literate and worked inside an international Japanese export operation before founding Tuminion. We don't rely on translated auction sheets or third-party agents. We read the source documents directly — so the grade, condition, and equipment description you receive is accurate and unfiltered. Over 1,000 vehicles have been delivered to customers across Kenya since we began operations.

What Sets Us Apart
Japanese Language Fluency
Both our directors have worked for an international Japanese export company and are fully Japanese-literate. We read auction inspection sheets, grade reports and dealer documentation in the original Japanese — so the condition assessment you receive is accurate, not a translation approximation.
Industry Insider Knowledge
Our hands-on experience inside Japanese export operations gives us relationships with auction houses, freight forwarders, and clearing agents that take years to build. We know which grades to avoid, which dealers are reliable, and which auction houses carry the best stock for Kenyan road conditions.
End-to-End Import Service
From auction bidding and sea freight to Mombasa port clearance (KRA, IDF, RDL levies) and final delivery to Nairobi — we manage every step. You don't need to deal with multiple agents or track shipments yourself. See our full service → How importing works →

Who is Tuminion Automobile Limited?
Tuminion Automobile Limited is a car importation company based in Nairobi, Kenya. We source vehicles from auction houses and dealer networks, and handle bidding, sea freight, Mombasa port clearance and delivery.
Why does it matter that your directors read Japanese?
Both of our directors are fully Japanese-literate and worked inside an international Japanese export operation. We read the auction inspection sheets and dealer documents in the original Japanese, so the grade and condition you receive are accurate, not a translation approximation.
What does Tuminion do for me?
We run the whole import: choosing and bidding on the car, pre-shipment inspection, shipping to Mombasa, KRA clearance and delivery. You do not need to deal with multiple agents or track shipments yourself.
How can I find out the full cost of a car?
Every car shows its CIF Mombasa price. KRA duty depends on the model and year, so we quote it for the exact car before you buy. Our import guide explains how the cost is made up.
