DHL and Pelindo 1 Partner to Accelerate Development of Kuala Tanjung

Pelindo 1 and DHL Global Forwarding Indonesia are partnering to accelerate the development of Kuala Tanjung Port and Industrial Estate (Kuala Tanjung PIE).

“Located in the middle of Malacca Strait, which is one of the busiest commercial shipping routes in the world, and supported by hinterlands which are rich in agricultural, plantation and mining natural resources along the island of Sumatera, Kuala Tanjung PIE is strategically positioned as an important node in the global logistics and supply chain network,” said Kelvin Leung, CEO of DHL Global Forwarding in Asia Pacific. “This is a critical project for the country and for DHL as we seek to cement our leading position in the freight forwarding industry in the region.”

Dani Rusli Utama, President Director and Prasetyo, Director of Transformation, said: “We need to work together to build an ecosystem and prepare Kuala Tanjung Port and Industrial Estate (Kuala Tanjung PIE) as Indonesia’s main gateway to the global logistics network. Pelindo 1’s collaboration with DHL will provide added value for both parties as well as cheaper, faster and more transparent services.”

Vincent Yong, President Director representing DHL Global Forwarding Indonesia, said: “It is an honor for us to collaborate with Pelindo 1 and contribute toward the government’s grand plan to accelerate the development of Kuala Tanjung PIE. Turning it into Indonesia’s Logistics Supply Chain Hub will further increase the competitiveness of the economy and enhance the ease of doing business in the country. We are excited about the growth potential of the country and remain committed to helping improve Indonesia’s supply chain efficiencies.”

“As a future port and industrial complex, Kuala Tanjung PIE will continue to grow, with a vision to become Indonesia’s Global Logistics and Supply Chain. So far, several companies and investors are interested in investing in the area. The more companies and investors who invest, of course, will support the acceleration of the revival of the Indonesian economy,” said Dani.
