DP World Cochin Achieves Record Throughput
Chennai: DP World-operated International Container Transshipment Terminal (ICTT) at Cochin has achieved a significant milestone by handling over 81,000 TEUs (Twenty-foot Equivalent Units) in June 2025, a 35% increase over May 2025. This growth reflects the terminal’s enhanced throughput capacity and sustained performance efficiency.
The terminal handled 54 vessels, including several mother ships, highlighting its operational strength and critical role in India’s logistics ecosystem. DP World Cochin has upgraded its power infrastructure from 3 MVA to 5 MVA, ensuring uninterrupted operations during peak demand periods. Additionally, the terminal’s full electrification of yard equipment has significantly reduced the carbon footprint of cargo handling, providing customers with a sustainability-driven competitive advantage.
Dipin Kayyath, CEO of DP World Cochin, said, “Achieving over 81,000 TEU mark in June 2025 reflects the trust our customers place in DP World Cochin and our proficient operations… We remain committed to expanding our capabilities, driving efficiency, and supporting the growth of sustainable and resilient supply chains.”
Cochin’s strategic location offers critical coastal connectivity to ports across India and serves as a key transit point for coastal cargo movement between the east and west coasts. DP World Cochin remains committed to setting new benchmarks in safety, innovation, and service excellence, delivering future-ready logistics solutions that power trade and strengthen India’s supply chain ecosystem.
The DP World-developed Kerala’s first Free Trade Warehousing Zone (FTWZ), India’s only such facility co-located within a major port, continues to serve as a vital enabler of EXIM trade and regional economic growth. With its record throughput and commitment to sustainability, DP World Cochin is poised to play an increasingly important role in India’s logistics landscape.
