Maersk opens Integrated Logistics Centre at Jafza to ease trade via Dubai

Maersk Kanoo UAE, an integrator of container logistics, has inaugurated its first Integrated Logistics Centre in Dubai at DP World’s leading trade and logistics hub, Jafza.

The Maersk Integrated Logistics Centre was inaugurated by Mr. Richard Morgan, Regional Managing Director, Maersk West & Central Asia and Mr. Christopher Cook, Managing Director, Maersk UAE, in the presence of Maersk’s top W&D customers in the UAE.

With the brand-new Logistics Centre in Dubai, Maersk is taking an important step towards building a truly integrated solution for its customers wherein the customers will get single window access to multiple logistics requirements, not only for the goods flowing in and out of UAE but even other Middle Eastern countries who use Dubai as a gateway to global trade.

Maersk has a strong commitment to decarbonize logistics and services. The facility will get solar panels on its rooftop to cater to all the entire electricity requirements for operations. The 434 MWh/year clean energy production of this installation will reduce more than 1,700 tons of carbon emissions over 10 years, an equivalent decarbonization feat achieved by planting over 70,000 trees seedlings over 10 years.
