DP World opens 11514 square metre warehouse in Johor Malaysia

Johor, Malaysia, witnessed the inauguration of a 11,514-square-meter warehouse by DP World on August 20, 2026. This marks the first of two facilities set to be constructed in Malaysia, with another planned for Kuala Lumpur later this year. The state-of-the-art warehouse, situated within the Johor-Singapore Special Economic Zone, is designed to offer agile, efficient, and reliable contract logistics solutions for businesses with intricate, time-sensitive supply chains.

Jeanie Tan, Chief Commercial Officer for Logistics, Asia Pacific at DP World, expressed her enthusiasm regarding the warehouse's opening. She stated that the new facility marks a significant step in enhancing DP World's logistics footprint across Southeast Asia. As they continue to invest in strategic logistics assets and connect them to their existing network of ports and terminals, DP World aims to enhance its capacity to deliver end-to-end supply chain solutions that facilitate smoother, more reliable, and more resilient goods movement for its customers.

The Johor warehouse is part of DP World's broader strategy to construct an integrated contract logistics network across Southeast Asia. This strategy includes warehouses in the Philippines and Thailand before the end of the year. These investments complement a series of recent milestones across the Asia Pacific region, such as the opening of DP World's first warehouse in Singapore in May 2025, which has recently obtained TAPA FSR certification.

Furthermore, new logistics facilities have been opened in Hong Kong, Sydney, Australia, and Icheon, South Korea.

By combining DP World's network of 16 ports and terminals across Asia Pacific with its expanding contract logistics platform, the company is creating a seamlessly connected supply chain ecosystem. This ecosystem integrates ports, warehousing, inland transport via Air, Ocean, Less than Container Load (LCL), and Intermodal freight services. The result is a more agile, resilient, and efficient end-to-end logistics solution that supports trade growth across Southeast Asia.
