UNLOCK NEW OPPORTUNITIES

DP World Integrated Chennai Business Park (ICBP) is located within a 40km radius of key ports, including Kattupalli (15km), Ennore (11km), and Chennai (27km), streamlining cargo transportation to and from the city. ICBP is the second free trade warehousing zone (FTWZ) for DP World India.

If you choose to operate in and from our Chennai FTWZ, you'll benefit from significant tax incentives, regulatory flexibility and reduced operational costs, along with access to essential support services. Streamlined customs procedures enhance logistics efficiency, minimise delays in shipping and provide easy access to global markets, enabling your business to expand its reach.

A HUB FOR TRADE <br>AND COMMERCE

Tamil Nadu is the best place for an FTWZ because it is the second largest economy in the country and a major industrialised state. Moreover, Chennai is the connecting hub for Southeast Asia and Australia.

By providing customers with end-to-end solutions for the movement of goods from the port, our Chennai Economic Zone is a significant step forward for India’s EXIM ecosystem. It embraces DP World’s ‘One Port, One Zone’ approach to bolster India’s competitive position in global trade.
