40ft Container Stalls for Sale in Kenya

Ready to launch your business in Kenya with a secure, professional, and affordable space? A 40ft shipping container stall is the ultimate “business-in-a-box” solution. At Frontier Containers EA Limited, we convert these massive 12-meter containers into multi-unit commercial spaces, perfect for entrepreneurs and investors.2

This isn’t just an empty box. A 40ft container stall is a fully fabricated unit, often divided into 5 or 6 separate shops, allowing you to start trading immediately or rent out the spaces for a rapid return on investment.3

The 40-foot stall offers the best value per square meter for a commercial setup. It’s the top choice for a serious business venture.

The spacious and modular design is ideal for:

This product is a fully fabricated container stall, not an empty container.9

When you buy a fabricated stall, the quality of the workmanship is everything. Here’s why Frontier Containers EA Ltd stands out:

A fabricated 40ft container stall, typically divided into 5 or 6 shops, costs between Kshs.17 560,000 and Kshs. 600,000. The final price depends on the level of customization, such as the number of doors, windows, and electrical fittings.18

This price generally includes the 40ft container itself, fabrication (cutting, welding), dividing into 5-6 stalls, installation of roller shutter doors, basic electrical work (lighting and sockets), and painting.19 Please contact us for a detailed, itemized quote based on your exact needs.

We can create a maximum of six (6) small shops or kiosks.20 However, the most popular and practical layout is five (5) evenly-spaced shops, which gives each tenant a more usable space.21

Amazingly fast. From the time you confirm your order, a standard 40ft multi-stall unit can be fabricated, painted, and ready for delivery in as little as 7 to 10 working days.

This depends on your county. In many jurisdictions, container stalls are considered temporary structures and may not require the same permits as permanent buildings.22 However, you must check with your local County Government and NCA for any specific licensing or placement requirements.

A 20ft Container Stall is 6 meters long and is ideal for 2-3 shops. A 40ft stall is 12 meters long and is better for 5-6 shops.23 If you want to create a small “mini-market” with multiple tenants, the 40ft offers a much better return on investment.

The site must be level, firm, and accessible by our crane truck.24 The container must sit flat for the doors to work properly. You can place it on firm compacted ground, a gravel base, or on simple concrete blocks at the corners and midpoint.

Yes. We have our own fleet of modern crane trucks (self-loaders) that can deliver and safely offload the 40ft container stall onto your prepared site anywhere in Kenya.

Absolutely. While the 5-stall layout is most common, you may want one large shop and three smaller ones. You can choose window and door placements, colors, and add features like shelving. Talk to our team, led by Eng. Stephen Karume, about your vision.

Yes. They are far more secure than typical “kibanda” stalls.25 They are made of heavy-duty CORTEN steel, and when fitted with roller shutters and internal steel doors, they provide excellent protection for your and your tenants’ stock.26

Yes. A 40ft container stall is significantly cheaper and faster to set up than building 5-6 traditional stone shops. You save on materials, labor, and months of construction time, meaning you can start earning money almost immediately.27

Yes, we can. We can stack containers and add external staircases and balconies to create a multi-level shopping complex.28 This is an excellent way to maximize profit on a small plot. Contact us to discuss container stalls for a large-scale project.
