Standby Power for a Nairobi Data Facility

Kaid General Trading was engaged by a colocation data-centre operator to deliver two 1,250 kVA prime-rated diesel generators with parallel switchgear for works in Nairobi, Kenya. The scope required equipment on site within a tight mobilisation window, with all export and customs documents cleared ahead of arrival.

Our procurement team sourced the units against the client's technical specification, staged them at the nearest KGT hub, and shipped a consolidated at our Mombasa yard and trucked up the Northern Corridor. Every unit shipped with an operator manual, inspection report and a KGT-DSIG proforma invoice verifiable directly from our website.

On site, the two 1 was commissioned by our field engineers alongside the contractor's crew. Handover included spare-parts stocking recommendations and a service schedule tailored to the power generation duty cycle.

The delivery is one of dozens Kaid General Trading has completed across Eastern Africa and the Gulf. If you have a similar requirement, request a quote through the site — most proformas are issued within 24 hours.
