Mohammed Al Muallem, Executive Vice President of DP World, said that DP World has a large market share in India’s ports sector, and its logistics assets cover major shipping centres such as the National Capital Region and the cities of Ahmedabad and Mumbai.

In Chennai and Hyderabad, DP World is the only operator with a presence in three major Indian ports and a market share of 28 percent of the volume of import and export containers, he added, noting that it can design and provide customised modular and standard logistics solutions.
