30.03.2023

DP World announced the launch of Reefer World, a new one-stop refrigerated container facility in Sydney, which will offer a wide range of reefer cleaning and repair services to clients in Australia and New Zealand.

The dedicated reefer facility is the largest of its kind in Sydney and one of the largest in Australia, providing a variety of reefer solutions, such as pre-trip wash, inspection, and structural repairs, to improve efficiency and ensure the quality and freshness of perishable cargo delivered to destinations worldwide.

With the opening of this facility, DP World more than doubles its capacity to supply empty reefers, with the ability to pre-trip and wash more than 100 reefer containers daily, and capture growing demand for exports from key markets such as Brisbane and Melbourne, as well as Auckland and Tauranga in New Zealand.

“As businesses continue to build greater agility, reliability and resilience into their supply chains, Reefer World will help to facilitate the timely and efficient flow of perishable goods, while addressing increased export demand in the region,” stated Andrew Adam, CEO of DP World Australia.
