DP World’s Jebel Ali Port achieved a record 630,000 tonnes of breakbulk cargo in October 2025, the highest monthly total in nearly 20 years. This surge is attributed to increased industrial and construction activity in the UAE, driven by major projects like the Dubai Metro Blue Line and DWC airport expansion, as well as rising sugar exports. Following a strong 2024, when breakbulk volumes rose by 23%, this milestone underscores Jebel Ali’s role in global trade and its commitment to enhancing capacity and sustainability as the region invests in infrastructure and logistics.
