The Definitive Guide
To DP World London Gateway.
Definitive Guide to London Gateway
This is your definitive guide to the UK’s most integrated logistics hub; a sustainable, strategically located, trade enabling centre of excellence on the River Thames.
The deep sea port and logistics park is supported by its own international rail terminal and is situated just10 miles from the M25 and 28 miles from London, making it an accessible hub for import and export.
The site also offers convenient, modern warehousing space, with a logistics park equivalent in size to 400 football pitches– the biggest of its kind in Europe. Facilities offer absolute flexibility, from building size and layout to length of lease.
The port is equipped with top-of-the-range equipment, including some of the largest quay cranes in the world, as well as automation in many areas, such as the truck handling process and stacking yard.
DP World London Gateway offers logistics & shipping companies, retailers and manufacturers a unique opportunity to work more efficiently and sustainably, closer to key consumer markets, in turn reducing road miles and offering a full service on one site.
London Gateway Port
Our port currently has three berths, all with water at a depth of 17m chart datum, with the opportunity to develop three more. Our current capacity is 2.4 million TEU: throughput grew by 10% in 2019, making us one of the world’s fastest growing ports.
London Gateway Logistics Park
Units of up to 1.6million sq ft can be developed on our logistics park, with buildings between 100k and 220k sq ft delivered in just 10 months. We offer incomparable flexibility in terms of building size, configuration, specification & lease length.
