Emergent Cold Latin America (Emergent LatAm), Latin America’s newest temperature-controlled warehousing and logistics provider, and DP World, a global logistics company and one of the world’s largest marine terminal operators, 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 Cold 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.
