I export UK vehicles to East Africa and NipponCheck's UK report is the first thing buyers ask for now. The MOT history and HPI check gives buyers in Kenya total confidence. It's transformed how I do business.

Michael ThompsonVehicle Exporter · UK 🇬🇧

As a first-time importer, I was nervous about buying a car from Japan without seeing it. The NipponCheck report gave me the auction photos, the inspection sheet, and the export certificate. I knew exactly what I was getting.

Peter NjorogeFirst-Time Importer · Kenya 🇰🇪

I was about to pay KES 7,000,000 for a Land Cruiser. NipponCheck showed me photos prior to export, the car had damages. Negotiated down KES 6,000,000. The KES 800 report paid for itself 1000x over.
