DP World is expanding the specialist logistics services it provides for customers in the retail and chemicals sectors, adding new capabilities and expertise to its global supply chain networks. These new specialisms complement the group’s existing expertise in automotive, perishables, healthcare and technology logistics.
DP World already has existing expertise in chemicals though its subsidiary, Singapore-based Legend Logistics. The planned investment in chemicals logistics is designed to build on this and support the sector’s projected rapid growth over the next decade.
Under this expanded offer, DP World says it plans to “give chemicals customers the confidence and capabilities to expand into new markets worldwide, safe in the knowledge that the company is unlocking new energy solutions and operating processes to track, measure and reduce environmental impact.”
DP World is also growing its range of retail sector solutions, adding more ocean and air freight, cold chain logistics and warehousing capacity. DP World’s Hong Kong-based subsidiary Cargo Services Far East, and its sister company CN Logistics, give the group the basis on which to cater for customers in the retail and high-end fashion sectors. This includes comprehensive Purchase Order (PO) management capabilities, from point of origin to retailer. These solutions are, DP World says, “designed to ensure efficient management of finished goods flow, delivering cost savings, transparency, speed to market and scalability for retail businesses.”
