Africa Logistics Properties Holding (ALP) is a developer and manager of modern grade-A warehousing focused on addressing a shortage of international-standard storage in the region. The company plans to deliver modern logistics parks and warehouses that adhere to IFC Edge green buildings standards. The financing described in the articles will be used for ALP's developments in Nairobi, the trading hub of East Africa. ALP is led by founder Toby Selman and a Nairobi-based team with African and international experience. The company is backed by Maris, which will invest US$8 million, and has attracted development-finance commitments to scale its projects. ALP positions its facilities to improve operational efficiency by reducing waste from poor storage, speeding product delivery, and improving product security. Its developments are framed as a means to lower high transport and logistics costs and support growth, employment and trade.
