DP World to invest €48 million in new cold chain hub at Antwerp port. On Sep 5, 2026 DP World will build a new temperature-controlled logistics hub in the Port of Antwerp. The project begins with an initial investment of EUR 48 million, with additional infrastructure investments foreseen in later phases, bringing the total long-term investment to approximately EUR 100 million. The development expands DP World's integrated logistics capabilities to support customers in healthcare, pharmaceuticals, perishables and other industries requiring specialist cold chain logistics. Developed in partnership with logistics real estate specialist Montea and Maatschappij Linkerscheldeoever (MLSO), the new facility will occupy an 83,000 m^2 site adjacent to DP World's Antwerp Gateway terminal. Once operational, it will combine more than 55,000 m^2 of specialised warehousing with direct access to terminal and multimodal transport operations, further strengthening DP World's end-to-end logistics offering in one of Europe's leading trade gateways. The facility will include warehouse and office space and has been designed primarily for temperature-controlled healthcare and pharmaceutical logistics. Around half of the warehouse capacity will be dedicated to perishables, including bananas and other fresh produce, supporting customers with multiple temperature-controlled storage options tailored to different cargo types. It will also support customers in the chemicals and technology sectors, creating a dedicated hub for integrated cold chain logistics, complemented by value-added services such as consolidation, deconsolidation and other specialised handling services. Located close to Antwerp Gateway, the facility will enable customers to benefit from integrated port and logistics services, combining ocean transport, terminal handling, warehousing and inland distribution from a single location. Direct access to road, rail and inland waterways will further strengthen supply chain connectivity across Belgium and the wider European market. Optimize Logistics Systems The warehouse will include partial refrigeration and is being designed to achieve BREEAM Excellent certification, reflecting DP World's focus on developing efficient and sustainable logistics infrastructure. Construction is expected to commence in the second quarter of 2027, subject to permitting, with completion anticipated in the second quarter of 2028. Rainer Schmid, Chief Commercial Officer, DP World, Europe, said: "As supply chains become increasingly specialised and time-sensitive, customers need logistics solutions that combine operational efficiency with reliability. This investment expands our temperature-controlled logistics capabilities in Antwerp and creates high-quality warehouse capacity ready to support customers with strategically located logistics solutions. By locating the facility near Antwerp Gateway, we're giving customers faster access to integrated port, warehousing and inland transport services from a single location, strengthening our ability to support the healthcare, pharmaceutical and perishables sectors with integrated cold chain solutions." Xavier Van Reeth, Country Director Belgium, Montea, said: "This development reflects where Montea creates long-term value: at strategic logistics locations where demand, accessibility and future growth converge. The Port of Antwerp is one of Europe's premier logistics hubs, and this project adds high-quality logistics capacity at a unique port location." Boudewijn Vlegels, chairperson, Maatschappij Linkerscheldeoever (MLSO), said: "The Waaslandhaven continues to attract high-quality logistics investments that strengthen the port's role as a leading gateway for international trade. Projects like this contribute to sustainable economic development by making efficient use of strategic port locations and supporting the long-term competitiveness of the region." The project follows the award of the development site concession and marks the next phase in expanding DP World's logistics footprint in Antwerp.

DP World becomes first port terminal in Chile to receive the Explora Logística Seal. September 3, 2026 /3BL/ - DP World has become the first port terminal operator in Chile to receive the Explora Logística Seal, recognizing its work in San Antonio to connect students with the logistics industry through structured educational visits. Led by Conecta Logística, a nonprofit focused on advancing Chile's logistics sector, and Fundación ChileDual, which connects technical education with industry, the recognition is awarded to organizations that open their operations to students through structured technical visits. The initiative supports the UN Sustainable Development Goals, including SDG 4: Quality Education, SDG 8: Decent Work and Economic Growth, and SDG 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities, while helping employees develop leadership skills and connecting companies with future talent. Since launching its educational visits program in 2024, DP World in San Antonio has welcomed nearly 1,000 students from high schools, technical institutes, and universities throughout Chile. The terminal hosts an average of three visits each month, with approximately 30 participants per visit. Students experience port operations firsthand and learn about the roles and skills involved in moving cargo and supporting global trade. The visits follow DP World's safety standards and are supported by employee volunteers who share their knowledge and experience with participants. Julio Tenesaca, Senior People Director at DP World in San Antonio, said: "This recognition reflects our long-term corporate vision, where sustainability, human capital development, and community engagement are central to our purpose. The commitment and participation of our team of volunteers have also been fundamental to opening our doors and creating meaningful experiences for students." Mabel Leva, Executive Director of Conecta Logística, said: "The Explora Logística Seal recognizes the commitment of companies like DP World to supporting students from technical and vocational high schools, bringing the industry closer to younger generations and inspiring them to pursue careers in the sector. Andrea Garrido, Executive Director of Fundación ChileDual, said: "This recognition reflects a commitment: preparing future technicians is a shared responsibility between the education system and the productive sector. Experiences like DP World's demonstrate that when companies open their doors and share their knowledge, they make a tangible contribution to strengthening the educational pathways of future generations." Expanding Educational Opportunities in San Antonio The program builds on DP World's wider support for education and youth development in San Antonio. Since 2016, its Pre-University Program has helped more than 300 students prepare for Chile's Higher Education Admissions Test (PAES). The company also celebrates academic achievement of employees' children, recognizing students from Year 1 through Year 12 for their outstanding performance during the school year. In 2025, the company further expanded its education initiatives with the launch of its free English Academy for the local community, helping youth strengthen their English skills and broaden their future education and career opportunities. Through these programs, DP World is helping young people learn about careers in logistics, build practical skills, and prepare for the workplace while strengthening its connection with the communities surrounding its operations.

DP World recognized for emissions transparency at Santos terminal. Third consecutive Gold Seal for independently verified emissions reporting comes as DP World invests in terminal electrification at the Port of Santos. September 03, 2026 09:00 ET | Source: DP World SANTOS, Brazil, Sept. 03, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - DP World has earned the Gold Seal from the Brazilian GHG Protocol Program for the third consecutive year, recognizing the quality, transparency, and independent verification of the company's greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions inventory in Brazil. Earning the Gold Seal for a third consecutive year demonstrates the consistency and transparency of how we measure and manage our emissions. Coordinated by the Center for Sustainability Studies of Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGVces), the Brazilian GHG Protocol Program promotes the measurement and public disclosure of corporate emissions using an internationally recognized methodology. The Gold Seal is awarded to organizations whose published emissions inventories undergo independent third-party verification. At Santos, DP World is pairing transparent emissions reporting with investment in lower-emission operations. As part of its broader decarbonization program in Brazil, the company has committed more than BRL 100 million to electrifying its entire fleet of 22 rubber-tired gantry (RTG) cranes, avoiding approximately 3,600 tonnes of CO[2] emissions in 2025. DP World's 2025 Sustainable Development Impact Disclosure identified RTG electrification as the primary driver of emissions reductions at Santos. Earlier this year, the company added 15 electric internal terminal vehicles (ITVs) and three electric reach stackers in Santos, with 44 electric ITVs planned as part of the terminal's broader modernization. Between January and April 2026, diesel consumption declined 29.2% compared with the 2024 average. Fabio Siccherino, CEO of DP World in Brazil, said: "Earning the Gold Seal for a third consecutive year demonstrates the consistency and transparency of how we measure and manage our emissions. We are turning that data into action through continued investment in electrification and renewable energy, reducing emissions while modernizing our operations and supporting more efficient and sustainable trade for our customers." All electricity consumed at DP World's Santos terminal is sourced from renewable energy and verified through I-RECs. The company's Zero Landfill Program also diverts waste that would otherwise be sent to landfill toward recycling, material recovery or energy recovery. These efforts complement DP World's ongoing BRL 1.6 billion expansion of the Santos terminal, which will increase annual container handling capacity to 1.7 million TEUs by 2026, with plans to further increase it to 2.1 million TEUs. By investing in capacity, electric equipment and renewable energy, DP World is supporting growing trade volumes while reducing emissions and advancing its global net-zero commitment for 2050.
