Captain Singh joined DP World this month from Thailand where he was Group CEO of Laem Chabang container terminals B1 and A0, a joint venture between APM Terminals, PSA and Marubeni. Previously, Captain Singh held senior management roles with P&O Group Sydney. Captain Singh has been in the maritime industry for 35 years, spending his earlier years at sea. As well as Thailand and Australia, he has also worked in Papua New Guinea and in India.
CEO Mohammed Sharaf said:
"We are delighted to welcome Anil and Flemming to the team. Anil brings a wealth of experience in our industry to his new role, while Flemming's global experience and extensive career with one of our largest customers will be invaluable as we continue to focus strongly on providing excellent service to our customers, expanding to meet their needs."
Mr Sharaf said the regional responsibilities had changed with the appointments, with three of DP World's eight operating regions reorganised to reflect the company's growing business in Russia and Africa.
The former Europe & North Africa region now encompasses Europe and Russia under Flemming Dalgaard while Anil Singh's Africa region now encompasses all of Africa except Egypt.
The newly acquired DP World Sokhna, Egypt, is now part of the Middle East region, headed by Captain Faisal Al-Qahtani, who joined the company in 2007.
