The Somali Freight & Logistics Association (SFLA) is a national, professional, and non-profit industry association established to represent, support, and develop the freight forwarding, transport, and logistics sector in Somalia. The Association brings together companies and professionals involved in shipping, freight forwarding, customs clearance, transportation, warehousing, and supply chain services.

SFLA was formed in response to the growing need for a unified and organized platform that can address industry challenges, promote professionalism, and support the modernization of Somalia’s logistics and trade infrastructure. As Somalia continues to rebuild and expand its role in regional and international trade, the Association plays a critical role in strengthening logistics systems that enable economic growth, investment, and humanitarian supply chains.

The Association acts as a bridge between the private sector and public institutions, facilitating constructive dialogue and collaboration with government ministries, customs authorities, port and airport operators, chambers of commerce, and development partners. Through this engagement, SFLA contributes to policy development, regulatory improvement, and trade facilitation initiatives that benefit both businesses and the national economy.
