Iko kijana ya nyumbani tumeona aanza kujitegemea. He is good with computers and is very disciplined. Tumefikiria kuanzishia yeye kakitu ya kuuza second hand/refurbished laptops, ajijenge kutoka hapo.

How does one go around doing importation and what are the charges? (Customs, taxes, shipping e.t.c)

 
The advice I can give you is that if he is importing from China, let him not use the Kenyan address. If he can get someone in Dubai and use his address the better.
What about the importation of football jerseys in bulk?
 
I heard importing goods through somali is quite cheap than through ke
Oh really?

My take.
Sourcing and importing is not a problem.
Selling is.
Where does he intend to sell them? Target clients? New or used etc.
Starting capital?
Can offer some insights on the industry.

Fanya hivi, wekelea insights, labda kuna mtu mwingine pia angelipenda kuona, sote tubarikiwe.

Ameamua kuuza through social media/Jiji/Jumia/PigiaMe n.k.

Starting capital wacha tumpe 200k za kununua mashini atahustle huko kwingine. Mashini of course ni refurbished, sijawahi ona mtu amenunua laptop mpya.

Target clients wako, sitaki kuanika kijana apate kuna mtu ashabobea kwenye kiwanja kabla hajaingia.

Main source of used laptops being sold in nairobi are from Dubai, including so labelled ex uk.
There are many sellers in Dubai, but what you need to look out for is quality, as some sell excellent quality, of course at slightly higher prices while others sell substandard quality at low prices.
Importing is via the eastleigh waria channel where you pay 7.5 USD per kilo. A laptop weighs 1.5 to 2.5 kgs. They are presently doing two airfreights per week.
I can give an example.
Hp folio 9480 4th gen i5, 500/4gb grade a used laptop is about 620 aed. I.e about kshs 18,600/- ship it at about kshs 1500/-.
Nairobi priced to go for 23 to 26k.

@Meria pea huyu Chief Lister. Hii itasaidia watu wengi
 
@JazzMan ingia na kijana pale down town Sharja, mpige lap kwa hizo computer shops zote checking out all the merchandise on offer. Shipping is the easiest bit. For shipment, unaweza tumia akina bingwa ama pia uingie pale Deira city centre upatane na very many shiny eye shipping agents.
Naona umetembea Dubz viproper
