Kenya Profit Calculator
for China Imports
Enter your product cost, shipping, and selling price. See your real margin, landed cost, and total profit before you spend a single shilling.
Estimates are for planning purposes only. Actual profit depends on market conditions, final supplier pricing, and costs at time of order.
Why Profit Calculation Matters
Many people import products without calculating the real profit. They see a supplier price of 500 ksh per item, plan to sell at 1,500 ksh, and assume they are making 1,000 ksh. But once you add shipping from China, packaging, rider delivery, advertising, and marketplace fees, the actual margin can drop below 20% or even turn negative.

What Is Landed Cost and Why Does It Matter?
Landed cost is the total amount you spend to get one item from a supplier in China into your hands in Kenya. It includes the product price, shipping, import duties, VAT, and any clearance fees. It is the real cost of your inventory, not just what the supplier charges you.
Profit Margin Benchmarks by Product Category
Not all products are equal. Based on what our clients import from China to Kenya, here are realistic margin targets to aim for.
Shoes & Clothing
High demand, fast turnover, but competitive pricing keeps margins moderate.
Bags & Luggage
Good margins due to perceived value and variety of price points.
Wigs & Hair Products
Strong demand but supplier prices vary widely. Verify quality before ordering in bulk.
Accessories & Jewellery
Low weight means low shipping cost per item, which protects margins well.
