"I had been looking for a genuine Land Cruiser 200 for over six months. Yamato Cars not only found exactly what I wanted on Goonet Exchange but guided me through the entire import process from the initial quotation to the moment the car arrived at Mombasa port. The team was professional, transparent about costs, and always reachable on WhatsApp. I would not import from anyone else."
"Excellent service from start to finish. I was nervous about importing for the first time but the Yamato team made everything simple and clear. They explained all the documents I needed, followed up proactively, and the car arrived in perfect condition. Very happy."
"We ordered two Isuzu tipper trucks through Yamato Cars for our construction company. Both arrived on schedule, exactly as described. The buying process was straightforward and the pricing was competitive. We are already planning our next order for excavators."
"Bought a Komatsu excavator through Yamato Cars for our road construction contract. The machine was exactly as described, low hours and well-maintained. From quotation to delivery took about six weeks, which is very reasonable. The Eldoret office was very helpful throughout."
