DP World has reached a milestone in the development of the Sokhna Logistics Park, with 65% of the first phase now complete. The $80 million logistics hub, strategically located in the Suez Canal Economic Zone (SCZONE), is set to bolster Egypt’s position as a regional trade hub.

Spanning 300,000 square meters, the facility will provide cost-effective, integrated supply chain solutions, leveraging DP World’s global network. Scheduled for completion in June 2025, the park aims to enhance efficiency, reduce logistics costs, and improve connectivity between Egypt, the Middle East, and Africa.

Situated just ten kilometers from Sokhna Port, the park offers direct access to key markets in Greater Cairo and major industrial zones, enabling businesses to streamline operations and cut costs. Designed to support industries such as agriculture, pharmaceuticals, retail, automotive, and textiles, the facility will include bonded and non-bonded warehouses, office spaces, and container yards. Logistics services will range from warehousing and freight forwarding to customs clearing and value-added services like labeling, packing, and inspection.

Ranjit Ray, Senior Vice President, Economic Zones, MENA at DP World, stated: “The facility will integrate with DP World’s Sokhna Port operations, offering multi-modal supply chain services and access to our global trade network, providing cost-effective solutions for local and international businesses.”

The project has already attracted strong interest from global firms, including businesses in Dubai’s Jebel Ali Free Zone (JAFZA), looking to expand their regional footprint.
