DP World opens first DC at London Gateway Logistics Park 20 July 2015
Next building, in joint venture with Prologis, expected to be ready in September
DP World has officially opened its first distribution centre at what is set to become the largest logistics hub in the UK. The first phase of this high tech unit, which comprises 16,800 m2 of distribution and logistics space and 2,400 m2 of office space, has been finished to BREEAM ‘very good’ standard, the world's foremost environmental assessment method and rating system for buildings.
In partnership with DP World, the centre is being operated by Import Services Limited, a UK logistics services provider, offering a variety of activities on a pay-as-you-go basis. Based on market demand, DP World is now planning to increase the size of the centre to 36,000 m2.
The DP World London Gateway Logistics Park is located adjacent to the UK’s newest deep-sea terminal, with its excellent location, on the door-step of the largest consumer market in Western Europe.
