Grain Bulk Handlers Limited is a private company owning and operating a specialised terminal for handling bulk grain and fertilizer imports. The terminal is located at Shimanzi, just outside the port perimeter fence and is linked by conveyor to Berth No. 3 at Kilindini Port, Mombasa, Kenya. The terminal's activities include discharge of vessels and delivery of landed consignments from the Grain Bulk silos or warehouses to the desired mode of transport either in bulk or bagged form.

The initial idea for investing in a Bulk Grain Handling Terminal was conceived in 1983 but it materialised in 1998 when government permission and international financing were obtained to facilitate construction. The terminal was later commissioned on 14th February 2000 and was officially launched by His Excellency President Daniel Arap Moi on 15th March 2000.
