International supply chain solutions provider DP World has announced the opening of its first warehouse in Singapore at the Mapletree Menoi Logistics Hub.
The 140,000 sq ft multi-bond multi-user bonded, purpose-built warehouse is the latest addition to DP World’s warehousing footprint in Asia Pacific. Along with the firm’s global ports, terminals network and freight forwarding business, DP World now manages more than 8.6 million sq ft of warehousing space across the region.
“With these new facilities in Singapore, Hong Kong and South Korea complementing the existing network of assets we manage, we are now better positioned than ever to deliver agile, efficient, and reliable logistics solutions,” says Glen Hilton, CEO for DP World in Asia Pacific.
Through key acquisitions in the last twelve months, including Singapore-based Legend Global Logistics (Legend), the company has expanded its specialist logistics service offerings.
Since the relocation of its APAC regional office to Singapore in 2021, DP World has increased its employee base to more than 10,000 people across the region, accounting for about 10% of its global workforce.
