DP World

The West Indies is an iconic hub for the sport of cricket and we were proud to lend our support as the Global Logistics Partner of the International Cricket Council during the recent Men’s T20 World Cup across the USA and West Indies. With the ICC we share a vision of a sport accessible to all, and so we proudly brought our Beyond Boundaries Initiative to Barbados on the eve of the T20 World Cup Final. With the help of West Indies’ and T20 legend, Chris Gayle, we delivered kits and equipment to the Barbados Cricket Association, Franklyn Stephenson Academy and Barbados Royals Girls Cricket Club. The initiative event, at which we were delighted to have Anurag Dahiya speak on the positive impact of our partnership, also saw us unveil a beautiful repurposed container that will serve as a changing facility for the girls at Barbados Royals – the only free-to-play girls cricket club on the island. The launch of the initiative, helped by our Global Ambassador Sachin Tendulkar, was the beginning of a mission that has now seen us use our global network and smart logistics solutions to deliver 2,250 cricket kits to grassroots organisations across Asia, Africa and North America. We won’t stop here, the mission continues. #SmartLogisticsBeyondBoundaries

We're celebrating the journey of our ports and our people. Twenty years ago, in April 2004, DP World Constanta first opened. It has grown to become the largest container port on the Black Sea and continues to expand within Europe. With new facilities set to be implemented by 2025, we are ready to significantly improve the connectivity between our sea, rail, barge, and truck services across Romania. Over the same two decades, Rashid Abdulla, CEO and Managing Director for DP World's European region, has also been on a transformative journey. Joining us as a graduate trainee in 1995, Rashid moved through the ranks of the organisation with his first oversees assignment as Manager – Container Terminal at DP World Constanta in 2004. More than 28 years after his journey began, he continues to apply new learnings to evolve both personally and professionally alongside the business. The parallel growth between our port and people embodies our collective journey of progress and innovation. Our journey has only just begun.

We were honoured to host HH Sheikh Maktoum Bin Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum at our London Gateway Port and Logistics Park. Alongside our Chairman Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem and our Europe CEO and MD Rashid Abdulla, we showcased the new Berth 4, equipped with Europe’s tallest gantry cranes, ready to handle the world’s largest container vessels. Our investments will expand the port and logistics park, creating 12,000 new jobs and boosting the local economy. Together we're excited to continue enhancing trade and logistics services for our customers in the region and beyond.

Today, we proudly welcomed #CoscoShipping’s newest RoRo vessel, ‘Min Jiang Kou,’ to #JebelAliPort for her first regional call. One of the world’s largest RoRo vessels, boasting 13 decks and a 7,500-vehicle capacity, ‘Min Jiang Kou’ is on her maiden voyage along with her sister ship, ‘Liao He Kou.’ These vessels are equipped with LNG dual-fuel engines and advanced green technology that significantly reduces emissions, supporting our wider industry transition to clean energy. Last year, we handled over 600,000 car equivalent units (CEUs) at Jebel Ali Port and today’s visit by ‘Min Jiang Kou’ strengthens Dubai’s position as a gateway for automotive trade, and our shared mission to build a more sustainable maritime industry. #Maritime #CleanEnergy #SustainableShipping #AutomotiveTrade

Our Chairman and CEO, Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem, welcomed His Excellency Gabriel Boric, President of the Republic of Chile and His Excellency Alberto van Klaveren, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Chile to Jebel Ali Port, marking a significant milestone in bilateral relations and joint ventures. Building on the momentum established through the signing of the UAE-Chile Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA) this week, we are proud to support ambitions of increased investment flows and mutually beneficial sustainable growth in trade and economic cooperation.

We're poised to support these new connections and foster resilient development in both regions.
