What DP World Evyap does

DP World Evyap is a Turkish port terminal operating company and subsidiary of DP World, the global port operator. The company runs two terminals — the Körfez Terminal and the Yarımca Terminal — both located in Kocaeli province on Izmit Bay, a strategic industrial corridor serving Turkey's manufacturing and import/export hinterland. Its service portfolio spans vessel berthing, container and cargo handling, container storage (Ardiye), Container Freight Station (CFS) operations including stuffing/unstuffing, inspection, X-ray, and sampling, as well as inland road transport services for containers and cargo. Customers are primarily large international and regional ocean carriers — Maersk, MSC, Hapag-Lloyd, Evergreen, Arkas Denizcilik, and Turkon — along with import/export companies moving goods through the Kocaeli industrial region.

The core operational technology is a modular web portal, the DP World Evyap Körfez Portal, which provides customers with container query (by container number, bill of lading, or booking number), real-time vessel information, an estimated storage fee (demurrage) calculator, weighbridge ticketing for Verified Gross Mass (VGM) compliance, downloadable service and warehouse tariffs, and Excel-based service request forms routed to a central customer service inbox. The portal is part of the broader DP World digital ecosystem, with login redirected to a separate GullsEyeWeb authentication domain. The company also publishes standardized PDF documents for tariffs, working hours, holiday hours, dangerous goods handling, and information security policy, indicating a formal, process-driven operating environment.

DP World Evyap generates revenue through four primary streams: (1) transaction-based port service fees for vessel berthing and cargo handling; (2) usage-based container storage (Ardiye) fees at terminal and CFS facilities; (3) transaction-based CFS service fees for stuffing/unstuffing, inspection, X-ray, and sampling; and (4) transaction-based road transport fees for highway movement of containers and cargo. Pricing is tariff-driven and pay-as-you-go, with published rate schedules. The go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales targeting shipping lines and logistics companies, supported by the online portal for transactions, tracking, and service requests. The company is currently undergoing a publicly disclosed corporate restructuring and merger process, and is rolling out new mandatory occupational health and safety protocols effective June 2026.

Regional players

• Mersin International Port (MIP): Mersin International Port is Turkey's largest container port on the Mediterranean coast and the primary competitor to DP World Evyap for Turkish import/export container volumes, particularly for cargo not requiring Marmara access. Same country, same customer segments, similar service offerings.
• Yilport Holdings: Yilport is a Turkish-headquartered global container terminal operator that operates Ambarli Port near Istanbul and other terminals. It is a direct regional competitor to DP World Evyap, competing for the same carrier volumes calling at Turkish ports.

Broad incumbents

• DP World (parent): DP World is the parent company and one of the world's largest port operators with terminals across the Middle East, Europe, Africa, Asia, and the Americas. While not a competitive peer in the traditional sense, it operates comparable container terminals globally and sets the operational and digital standards that DP World Evyap follows.

Direct peers

• Hutchison Ports: Hutchison Ports operates container terminals globally, including significant presences in Europe and the Mediterranean. It is a direct global competitor to DP World Evyap for carrier volumes, with overlapping capabilities in container handling, CFS, and digital customer platforms.
• PSA International: PSA International is a leading global container terminal operator headquartered in Singapore, operating dozens of terminals worldwide. It competes head-to-head with DP World Evyap for global carrier volumes and uses comparable integrated port and digital service models.
• APM Terminals: APM Terminals is Maersk's terminal operating arm and one of the world's largest container terminal operators. It directly competes with DP World Evyap in container handling, berthing, and integrated port services, and is a counterpart to DP World in the same carrier-aligned terminal operator category.
• COSCO Shipping Ports: COSCO Shipping Ports is the terminal operating arm of COSCO, one of the world's largest container shipping lines. It competes globally for container handling volumes and operates terminals in the Mediterranean and Europe that handle carrier customers overlapping with DP World Evyap.
• Terminal Investment Limited (TIL) / MSC Terminals: Terminal Investment Limited (TIL) is MSC's terminal investment arm, operating container terminals worldwide. As MSC is a top customer of DP World Evyap, TIL represents both a customer relationship and a competitive threat if MSC verticalizes its Turkish volumes.
