Bulk supply for sites, not retail

Univar is a wholesale supplier to contractors, developers and public projects. We buy in volume from vetted manufacturers and quarries, so site quantities of cement, reinforcement steel, ballast, quarry dust, machine-cut stone, blocks, timber, roofing and plumbing arrive at wholesale prices with one invoice per delivery cycle.

What a wholesale order looks like

A typical order is a project phase: cement by the hundred bags, steel by the tonne, ballast and quarry dust by the lorry load, blocks and paving by the thousand. Send the bill of quantities or materials schedule and we quote line by line with lead times.

Delivery across Nairobi and the counties

Deliveries are consolidated and sequenced to your programme in Nairobi, Kiambu, Machakos, Kajiado and beyond, and by road to Uganda, South Sudan and Somalia. Recent work includes quarry dust and 80mm paving blocks to the Mukuru Affordable Housing Project.

How to open an account

First orders run on standard terms after a site visit by a director. Payment terms are offered to approved partners and agreed per project. Established contractors usually have the registration, KRA PIN and references we ask for to hand.

Do you sell to individuals building a single house?

We focus on contractors, developers and public projects ordering in site quantities. Individuals are welcome to request a quote for a full materials schedule.

How are wholesale prices set?

On volume and current manufacturer and quarry prices. Every quote shows unit price, quantity and delivery per line so you can compare.

Can you deliver outside Nairobi?

Yes, across all Kenyan counties and to Uganda, South Sudan and Somalia.

How long does a quote take?

Within two working days of receiving a materials list, often faster for standard items.
