Building the Future: DP World’s New Global Hub

OUR VISION

A SMARTER , GREENER WORKPLACE

Marking a pivotal moment in our journey to reimagine global trade, this next-generation Head Office sets the stage for innovation, sustainability, and smarter supply chains. Purpose-built to accelerate innovation, our new global headquarters brings together cutting-edge design, intelligent systems and sustainable infrastructure. Every element supports seamless collaboration across our global network, empowering teams to drive the future of trade.

SMART BY DESIGN. SUSTAINABLE BY DEFAULT.

Designed with efficiency and sustainability at its core, our new Head Office incorporates future-facing technologies, including solar energy, water recycling and advanced air systems, to deliver long-term environmental impact at scale.

Solar panels

Our new Head Office will generate part of its own electricity through rooftop solar panels. By producing clean power on site, we reduce dependence on traditional energy, cut carbon emissions, and set a benchmark for sustainable workplaces.

Water condensation

Recovering water from the cooling system, converting it into usable condensate, and storing it in tanks. This recycled water is then used to irrigate green areas around the office, reducing overall water consumption.

EMPLOYEE WELLBEING

FITWEL CERTIFICATION

This building is set to become the UAE’s first office to achieve Fitwel certification, reflecting our commitment to healthier, high-performance workspaces that enhance wellbeing, productivity and sustainability.

PLANNING FOR THE FUTURE

Our new global Head office is more than extra space, it is a sustainable, people-focused workplace that builds on the legacy of our pavilion. By combining smart design, automated parking and flexible, light-filled areas, it creates an environment where our teams can thrive and our business can continue to grow.

Expo 2020 Pavillion

Our new Head Office is seamlessly connected to DP World’s iconic Flow Pavilion and water fountain, which inspired millions at Expo 2020. Together, they create a unified campus that celebrates our heritage while supporting the future of trade.

Automated Parking

A separate fully automated parking building will house up to 1,000 cars. Using robotics, vehicles are slotted quickly and efficiently, with retrieval times of under three minutes. This first-of-its-kind system in the UAE will make arriving at our new office seamless and stress-free.

Space to grow

The new Head Office rises eight storeys above ground with a basement level, covering a plot area of over 18,000 m² and offering more than 37,000 m² of flexible workspace. At 38 metres tall, it provides the scale and modern facilities needed to support our growth.
