We are proud to have certified DP World against ISO 13485 (medical devices quality management systems) and EU Good Distribution Practice (GDP).
These milestones underscore DP World’s continued commitment to quality, compliance and patient safety in handling and distributing medical devices and pharmaceutical products.
Ivy Dala, Global Head of International Sales and Key Account Management at SGS, said: “This marks the first time SGS has assigned the same auditor to conduct both ISO 13485 and EU GDP audits for a client.
“This is a testament to DP World’s integrated approach to healthcare logistics and regulatory excellence. We congratulate DP World on this achievement.”

Gülderen Tuna-Mwale, Healthcare Vertical Lead at DP World, added: “These certifications reflect our dedication to meeting the highest international standards in the healthcare supply chain.
“We’re building the trust our partners and patients demand – not just through words, but through independently verified actions.”
ISO 13485 certification confirms DP World's quality management systems meet rigorous standards for the provision of warehousing for medical devices.
EU GDP certification demonstrates the company’s compliance with the stringent requirements for properly distributing medicinal products for human use, ensuring product integrity and patient safety throughout the supply chain.
DP World is actively expanding its global healthcare logistics footprint by reviewing and preparing additional facilities in various regions for future certification. This approach aims to build a fully compliant, scalable and reliable global healthcare logistics network, supporting the evolving needs of the pharmaceutical and medical industries.
