From our beginnings in 1972 at Port Rashid in Dubai (UAE), we now have a team of over 50,000 people working at 150 operations around the world.Our operations include ports and terminals, but also industrial parks, logistics and economic zones, maritime services and marinas. In fact, our business has changed so much from the early days of operating ports and terminals, we can now be an integral part of your supply chain, tailoring innovative solutions that tackle your challenges and manage your costs.We aim to be essential to building the bright future of global trade, ensuring everything we do leaves a long-lasting positive impact on economies and the world.
In the UK, we have created a high-quality integrated business – two deep water ports with freight rail terminals at London Gateway and Southampton, a rapidly expanding logistics park at London Gateway in Essex and an advanced software business within our Southampton Terminal providing online links to customers and border control. (CNS – Community Network Services).
With this, we provide the right trading infrastructure and smart logistical solutions for our customers. Each year, we transport around 3.6 million TEUs – enough to stretch from London to Buenos Aires and back. What’s more, over £43 billion worth of goods in these containers travel to and from countries beyond the EU.
We believe in the UK market and have the ambition and the resources to boost growth, support businesses, create jobs and improve living standards. Our sector-leading trading expertise is recognised by regularly providing technical and strategic advice to the UK Government.

Our Principles define the fundamental pillars to DP World’s ongoing success; they define what we do and who we are. They are as much about our actions as our attitude, creating a common culture will help to build our entire ‘brand promise' – how we present ourselves to the outside world and how we are perceived.
Creates Growth
We create growth by seeing what’s possible, especially when others don’t. We are constantly searching for the next and the new, and are not satisfied with ‘enough.’ There is always a better way, a faster or more profitable way.
Drives Results
We make things happen, often in the mist of adversity. Ideas on their own are not enough. When faced with obstacles, we find ways to deliver. The key is to focus on the result and not to get lost in the ‘how.’ We find ways!
Adapts & Evolves
While finding solutions, we focus on how we can make something happen. We’re not confined by the past. We adapt and evolve to create the future.
Makes Others Excel
We create an environment where others succeed. We help people to improve, helping them to achieve more. This extends to our customers as well as our colleagues. By staying outside the comfort zone, learning and growth is part of everyday life at DP World. Part of helping people improve is valuing their time. It is our precious resource.
