DP World reaffirms Indian commitment during Prime Minister Modi's UAE visit
DP WORLD chairman Sultan Ahmed in Sulayem reiterated the company's commitment to enabling India's growth and economic development during Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to the UAE.
DP World is a market leader in Indian container terminal operations and has the largest portfolio of ports along the Indian coastline.
DP World operates terminals in Gujarat (Mundra), Maharashtra (Nhava Sheva), Kerala (Cochin), Tamil Nadu (Chennai) and Andhra Pradesh (Visakhapatnam), where it supports 32 per cent of India's container trade.
Building on the historic ties and strong friendly relations between the UAE and India, DP World has established a strong market position in India, shaping the future of the maritime terminals industry and investing over US$2 billion, notes Dubai's Arabian Supply Chain magazine.
"The relationship between us has existed for centuries, and as one of the fastest growing emerging markets in the world we are proud to be part of its development efforts. We remain committed to our operations there, which form an important part of our global network," said Mr Bin Sulayem.
"We have played a key role in serving India's growing trade for more than a decade and helped redefine the container terminal business by introducing new technology, world class infrastructure and international operating practices," he said.
DP World was the first private ports operator in India in 1997 with the Nhava Sheva container terminal at Jawaharlal Nehru Port in Mumbai. This partnership was further cemented in 2012 when the Jawaharlal Nehru Port Trust awarded DP World a concession to build another terminal at the port.
