DP World will advise on the development of two Indonesian ports to help the country grow its domestic and international trade.
Following the signing of a technical assistance contract with the Indonesian government and port officials, DP World will share its knowledge and experience in increasing efficiencies, training and development for employees and developing multi-modal transport hubs at the the Kuala Tanjung greenfield Port and logistics zone and the Port of Belawan in North Sumatra.
DP World group chairman and CEO, Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem, said: “This partnership highlights Indonesia’s efforts to accelerate development of its ports and trade infrastructure, something we can help with given our global experience of advising governments on connecting with international markets.
“Our existing operations at PT Terminal Petikemas Surabaya (TPS) give us an added advantage of understanding local and regional markets and we look forward to working with the Indonesian port authorities on developing international and domestic trade.”
DP World will be reviewing operations at Belawan Port and advising on efficiency improvements, and plans for the Kuala Tanjung greenfield port and logistics zone to reduce costs.
