DP WORLD INTRODUCES A NEW WEEKLY SERVICE BETWEEN INDIA AND FAR EAST

DP World has introduced a new weekly Straits India Service (SIS) at its Port Terminals in Nhava Sheva and Mundra. The new service is operated by the global feeder operator Feedertech, part of Unifeeder Group (DP World Marine Services).

The weekly service will establish direct connectivity to the Far East with the shortest transit time from DP World terminals in Nhava Sheva and Mundra. This will provide customers with opportunities to grow their business and offer seamless connections to Malaysia and Singapore as an alternative to transhipping at Colombo Port, thereby improving lead time and reducing cost.

The service commenced with the maiden call of vessel “ORNELLA” on 4th December 2021 at DP World Nhava Sheva Terminal and on 6th December 2021 at DP World Mundra Terminal. The Weekly SIS will have the shortest transit time of 8 days from Mundra to Singapore, providing great cost benefits to customers.

This is yet another step in DP World’s endeavour to build an end-to-end logistics capability and integrated services for our end customers. We will continue to create opportunities in the fast-growing coastal short-sea trade in and around the Indian Subcontinent.
