Global logistics management and services firm DP World will build a container terminal in Gujarat and is committed to further investments in India, the company's Chairman Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem said this while addressing  the Vibrant Gujarat Global Summit on 10 January, 2024.

The company will continue to partner with the Indian logistics sector and support manufacturing industries in the state as well as the rest of India to make Indian goods globally competitive and accessible. The container terminal at Kandla will have a capacity of two million containers.

DP World started its operation in Gujarat in 2003 with the opening of the Mundra International Container terminal. It has invested to the tune of USD 2.5 billion on various activities such as development of multi-modal logistics ecosystem, container freight station, inland terminal contract logistic, cold chain and acute first cargo services, among others.

DP World is planning to bring in additional investment in the next few years.
