    Dakshin Bharat Gateway Terminal (DBGT) has been recognized as the Top Performing Terminal in the Southern Region, demonstrating its commitment to excellence and efficiency in terminal operations.

    According to the LDB Analytics Report for CY 2024, the Southern region has witnessed significant improvements in port dwell time performance, with a 13.7% reduction in the import cycle and a 12.5% reduction in the export cycle compared to CY 2023. The region also saw a 6% increase in the number of containers catered in the import cycle and a 5.8% increase in the export cycle compared to CY 2023.

    DBGT’s exceptional performance has driven these regional improvements, particularly the YoY growth of 14% in volumes achieved during CY2024.

    The terminal’s focus on innovation, safety, and sustainability has enabled it to remain a leading gateway terminal in the region.

    “We are thrilled to receive this recognition from LDB Analytics,” said DBGT management. “We extend our heartfelt gratitude to VOC Port for their relentless support, which has been instrumental in our success. We also appreciate the close coordination of the Shipping Fraternity in Tuticorin, whose collaboration has enabled us to achieve this milestone.”

    DBGT’s management also acknowledged the contributions of its staff and employees, saying, “Our experienced team has worked tirelessly throughout the year and their unstinted efforts have been crucial in achieving this recognition. We are proud of our team’s dedication and commitment to excellence.”
