EcoRoute is a range of solutions designed to help businesses optimise the performance of their supply chains while reducing emissions.

DP World has launched EcoRoute, a suite of solutions that helps businesses optimise supply chain performance while reducing emissions by combining network design, lower-carbon logistics, emissions measurement, and strategic partnerships. Approximately 10% of global energy-related CO2 emissions can be attributed to freight and logistics. Meanwhile, tightening regulations, investor scrutiny, and customer expectations are increasing demands on the performance of supply chains. 

EcoRoute offers customers a range of services.

To respond to these challenges, EcoRoute offers our customers: 
1. Optimised supply chain networks, balancing cost, speed and emissions to create more efficient and resilient supply chains. In Africa, through our centralised Logistics Control Tower solution, DP World helped a major retailer increase transported volumes by 45% while increasing fleet size by only 5%, improving vehicle utilisation to 88%, operational efficiency, and supply chain resilience.

2. Lower carbon solutions through modal shift programmes, alternative fuel and electric transport solutions, and lower carbon warehouses and facilities. In India, DP World helped a customer reduce transport emissions by 78% on the Chennai–Kolkata corridor through a multimodal rail-to-coastal solution, while improving reliability and lowering logistics costs.

3. Carbon Insetting programmes to help our customers reduce emissions within their own supply chains, addressing Scope3 emissions. Through our carbon insetting programmes at Southampton and London Gateway, in 2025 alone we generated more than 9,400 tonnes of verified CO₂ insets across 257,000 TEU of cargo flows, helping deliver emissions reductions within customers' own logistics value chains unlike traditional offsetting models. 

4. Emissions measurement and visibility through our Carbon Emissions Calculator, powered by EcoTransIT World and aligned with ISO 14083. The Carbon Emissions Calculator provides end-to-end visibility of emissions across transport modes, helping customers identify reduction opportunities. 

Through EcoRoute, we also collaborate with our customers and strategic partners to extend sustainability impact beyond business operations. By linking lower carbon supply chains with social and environmental initiatives, customers can advance their ESG goals while creating positive outcomes for communities and ecosystems.

EcoRoute helps customers reduce emissions while improving efficiency and resilience by combining connectivity, data and operational expertise across our global network.”
