Emergent Cold Latin America (Emergent LatAm) and DP World announced their intention to partner on the development of two temperature-controlled logistics facilities within DP World Logistics Parks in Latin America. These developments will provide Emergent LatAm and DP World customers with a fully integrated supply chain solution. The developments will be focused on two locations: DP World Caucedo (Dominican Republic) is a world-class Logistics Hub and free trade zone located in Punta Caucedo, near the city of Santo Domingo. Caucedo is the newest and most modern port on the island, and a gateway for the Caribbean food trade. Duran Logistics Center (Ecuador) began operations in September 2020 as part of a large investment in this important global trade market. Ecuador’s main export commodities include shrimp and bananas. The parties have also committed to explore development activities in other DP World locations in Latin America to enhance their service offerings and further establish a cold-chain footprint.
