DP World has announced plans to relocate its global head office to Expo City Dubai.
DP World has been based in Jebel Ali, at the heart of its port and free zone operations since it was established under its current name in September 2005.
Announcing the plan, Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem, Group Chairman and CEO of DP World, said, “DP World’s relocation to Expo City Dubai is not an isolated project; it is one of many within our overall transformation to become the leading global provider of end-to-end supply chain solutions. Moving to Expo City puts us at the heart of Dubai’s future, while also signifies our commitment to innovation, sustainability, and making trade flow for our global customers.
“We are confident that our new state-of-the-art home will not only facilitate our continued growth, but also serve as a testament to our dedication to excellence and environmental stewardship. Across our business, we are committed to providing sustainable solutions for customers and partners and this same innovative mindset drives the vision for our new head office.”
Dr. Amr El Sabban, Group Senior Vice President, Planning and Project Management at DP World said the smart building concept encompasses a wide range of advanced systems and solutions, including energy efficient solutions, building management systems, intelligent elevator systems, and smart audio-video monitoring.
The building also includes an automated parking area, which maximise plot use and aligns with DP World’s environmental goals, reducing the carbon footprint associated with traditional parking facilities.
The project also provides surface car parking facilities near the entrances specifically designated for electric vehicle (EV) charging.
