To excel in operations, sales and customer service to our customers and to enhance the position of the local communities and countries in which we operate as a gateway for global trade. Our promise is to provide World Class port services and a value-for-money product offering to the trade community, through our highly motivated and innovative employee workforce. DP World Chennai and the Chennai Container Terminal Pvt Ltd. (known to all as CCT) is the first container terminal, built at Chennai Port in 1983, South India's largest gateway to container trade.

DP World's efforts in process re-engineering have brought the dwell time of containers at the terminal from 7-8 days in 2001 when taken over, to less than 24 hours today. The terminal entered the "One Million" TEU club in 2007. Over the last 13 years since CCT commenced operations, our team has made much effort in building up confidence in the South Indian trade fraternity and has gone that extra mile in reaching out to its' customers' customers. In 2010 these efforts resulted in DP World Chennai winning the coveted and most sought after Lloyd's List Middle East & Subcontinent ...
