Dubai ports emerged the winner after being locked in a triangulated ballot between the port of Jeddah in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and Salalah Port in the Sultanate of Oman.
The award, which is in its 19th year, is instituted by Cargonews Asia — Asia’s leading freight and logistics fortnightly — and is considered one of the most prestigious of its kind in the logistics and cargo supply chains industry in Asia.
DPA’s unbroken winning streak at Asfca began in 1995, with this year adding another laurel to the long list of significant achievements including the Dubai Quality Award it had won in 2003, according to a Press release.
The award was received by Anwar Ahmed Wajdi, executive director-commercial, Dubai Ports Authority, on behalf of Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem, Chairman, Ports Customs and Free zone Corporation at a ceremony held in Hong Kong recently.
Commenting on the award, Wajdi said: “Dubai ports is one of the busiest in the world in terms of container handling and we are constantly improving our services and facilities in order to meet and exceed expectations of our customers. This award is manifest of our commitment and has provided us greater leverage in our long term strategy of continuous improvement."
"More than 12,500 readers of Cargonews Asia were polled to select the best service providers from Europe, North America, Asia and the Middle East in 41 industry-specific categories. The best seaport award was won by Dubai ports as it was rated highly by Cargonews Asia readers in the provision of best container shipping-related infrastructure, cost-competitiveness, container shipping-friendly fee regime, timely and adequate investment in new infrastructure to meet future demand and facilitation of ancillary services, including logistics and freight-forwarding facilities," Wajdi concluded.
