DP World is constructing a new temperature-controlled logistics hub in the Port of Antwerp, marking an investment of approximately EUR 100 million over its lifespan. This €48 million initial investment, in partnership with logistics real estate specialists Montea and Maatschappij Linkerscheldeoever (MLSO), aims to bolster DP World's integrated logistics capabilities for industries requiring cold chain logistics, including healthcare, pharmaceuticals, and perishables.
The 83,000 m² facility, situated adjacent to DP World's Antwerp Gateway terminal, will boast over 55,000 m² of specialized warehousing and direct access to terminal and multimodal transport operations. With half of the warehouse capacity dedicated to perishables like bananas, the hub offers tailored temperature-controlled storage, along with value-added services such as consolidation and deconsolidation.
Upon completion in late 2028, the facility will fortify DP World's end-to-end logistics services in one of Europe's top trade gateways, offering customers integrated port, warehousing, and inland transport services from a single location. The sustainable construction project, expected to achieve BREEAM Excellent certification, emphasizes DP World's commitment to efficient and eco-friendly logistics infrastructure.
