DP World Signs Exclusive Terminal Negotiation Agreement with Port of Corpus Christi

en.Wedoany.com Reported - DP World has confirmed the signing of an exclusive negotiation agreement to develop and operate a container terminal at the Port of Corpus Christi in Texas, USA. The plan involves the design, construction, and operation of this new infrastructure to strengthen supply chains along the Gulf Coast.

Brian Enright, CEO of DP World Americas, stated that the Gulf Coast is one of the most important trade and economic corridors in the United States, with growing demand for efficient and resilient port infrastructure. He noted that the Port of Corpus Christi offers a significant opportunity to expand container capacity, enhance supply chain connectivity, and create new pathways for U.S. businesses to access global markets. The executive added that he looks forward to working closely with the port authority, local unions, and other stakeholders to build a world-class terminal that promotes job creation, attracts new trade flows, and delivers long-term economic value for South Texas and the broader U.S. economy.

Kent Britton, CEO of the Port of Corpus Christi, stated that the completion of the landmark Corpus Christi Ship Channel Improvement Project in June 2025, largely thanks to federal investment, has unlocked the potential for existing port customers to meet evolving global market demands while driving further cargo diversification. He emphasized that entering exclusive negotiations with DP World is another important step in the port's long-term strategy to expand capacity, deliver greater value to customers, and drive investment along the coast.

If realized, this project would become DP World's first container terminal in the U.S. Gulf region.
