Service availability

Check what is configured for your destination.

This checker confirms what is configured. It does not book a parcel, quote a price or guarantee a service level.

Order to reconciliation

One Tanzanian order, end to end.

Confirmation, pick and pack, delivery, proof of delivery, COD and returns, in the order they happen.

  1. 1

    Stock arrives

    Inventory is received and counted in Dar es Salaam. MFT's scope begins after destination-country customs clearance — MFT is not your customs broker.

  2. 2

    Order lands

    Your order file reaches MFT and is picked and packed against your SKU list.

  3. 3

    Customer confirms

    The customer is contacted on WhatsApp to confirm the order and delivery window before a rider is dispatched.

  4. 4

    Delivery attempt

    The parcel moves on a route MFT runs in Tanzania. Service level follows the coverage row for that destination.

  5. 5

    Money and reconciliation

    Collected TZS is reconciled line by line against your manifest, with the delivery outcome and reason code on the same statement.

Customs and clearance support depends on product type, route, destination market, and documentation provided.

TZS COD and mobile money

How TZS collections are controlled.

Collected and settled in Tanzanian shillings, reconciled against your order manifest.

Collection methods
cash at the door, M-Pesa, Mixx by Yas (formerly Tigo Pesa) and Airtel Money
Settlement currency

Storage and limits

The storage arrangement, and what it does not include.

Office, stock arrangement, PUDO and returns stated separately, so nothing is inferred from the word 'hub'.

Coordination office

MFT Tanzania office

An MFT office for coordination and merchant support. It is not a verified MFT-operated storage facility — where stock sits is confirmed per product and volume.

Storage arrangement

Where your stock actually sits

Stock is received, counted, stored and dispatched through MFT's named Dar es Salaam operating arrangement. The responsible stock-holding party is disclosed before inventory is transferred. Upcountry and Zanzibar orders ship from Dar es Salaam on scheduled runs, and there is no second storage location in Tanzania.

Regional merchant desk

One desk for every MFT market

Merchant enquiries for Tanzania are handled on +1 289 969 7309. It is MFT's regional merchant desk, not a local Tanzania line — one merchant channel deliberately covers every MFT market.

  • PUDO pickup uses partner counters in Dar es Salaam. Pickup in any other town must be confirmed town by town.
  • Returns are consolidated through the Dar es Salaam operating arrangement and handled on your instructions.

FAQ

Tanzania fulfillment questions

Dar es Salaam delivery, scheduled routes, TZS COD, PUDO and returns, and getting started.

Dar es Salaam is MFT's live operating zone, covering Kinondoni, Ilala, Temeke, Ubungo and Kigamboni. Orders confirmed before the daily cut-off are dispatched the same day and usually delivered the same day to 1 working day after dispatch.

Yes, on scheduled routes from Dar es Salaam, not daily runs: Arusha and Dodoma usually take 2–4 working days, Mwanza 3–5 and Zanzibar (Stone Town and Unguja) 2–5. Other regions are not configured and are confirmed at onboarding before any order is accepted.

Buyers pay in Tanzanian shillings (TZS) by cash at the door, M-Pesa, Mixx by Yas (formerly Tigo Pesa) or Airtel Money. Collections are reconciled daily against your order manifest, line by line. Daily reconciliation is not a daily payout: payout timing and deductions are set in your Tanzania service schedule.

PUDO pickup uses partner counters in Dar es Salaam; pickup in any other town must be confirmed town by town. Refused and undelivered parcels are logged with a reason code and consolidated through the Dar es Salaam operating arrangement, then restocked, returned or disposed of only on your instructions.

Request a Tanzania fulfillment plan with your product category, expected monthly orders and destination towns. MFT confirms the routes that apply, the storage arrangement and the responsible stock-holding party, and agrees your service schedule (pricing, COD methods, payout timing and returns) before stock moves.

MFT office
Samu Umoja Road, Mwenge Mpakani Centre, 5th Floor

An MFT office for coordination and merchant support. It is not a verified MFT-operated storage facility — where stock sits is confirmed per product and volume.

MFT supports major cities and serviceable regions. Exact delivery coverage, timelines, COD availability, and PUDO options depend on location, product type, order volume, and operating route.
