About Cardojo Imports

Your trusted partner in bringing quality imported vehicles to your doorstep

Our Story

Cardojo Imports began in 2020 with one car, imported by our founder for himself. Friends asked how it was done, then asked him to do it for them, then sent their families. For four years that was the whole business: buying at the Japanese auctions for people who already knew him.

In 2024 it was registered in Kenya as Cardojo Imports Ltd, and the same service opened to anyone who asks for it. We bid at over 200 auction locations across Japan (the same floors the dealers buy from, at the prices they pay) and we also sell local stock that is already here and cleared.

We are a young company, and we would rather tell you that than pretend otherwise. What we can show you is the auction sheet for the car, the price we bid, and what it costs to land in Mombasa, with nothing between those numbers and you.

Our Journey

2020

Importing for people we knew

It started with one car, for the founder. Then for friends, and for family, and for the people they sent, each one bought at a Japanese auction and cleared through Mombasa.

2024

Cardojo Imports Ltd

Registered in Kenya, doing for anyone who asks what had been done for friends: imports on request from the Japanese auctions, and local stock that is already here and cleared.

What we commit to

A figure in writing before you pay anything

Every quote names the vehicle, the price basis and what it will cost you on the road in Nairobi: duty, shipping, clearing and registration. It is the figure we hold to, and if something moves you hear it from us first.

The auction sheet before the bid, not after

Japanese auction cars are graded and inspected, and the sheet records every mark and defect code. You see it, and what is on it, while you can still say no.

One bank account, and it never changes

Our details are on the bank details page and nowhere else. If anyone sends you different ones in our name, it is fraud. Call the office before you transfer anything, however convincing it looks.
