    OUR VALUES

    Back in 1976, when containerisation was in its infancy, Gulftainer and the Sharjah Port Authority built and operated the first container terminal in the Arab world. The arrival of the vessel, MV Tarek was a significant milestone in transport history. This is how the Gulftainer story began, 37 years ago.

    Throughout Gulftainer's history, we have continued to improve and develop our ports to serve Sharjah, Dubai and the other Northern Emirates with our hallmark efficiency and productivity, and in recent years, we have exported this to a growing number of locations. This will be the way we continue our journey in the future, by continuing to invest in and developing our home ports of Port Khalid and Khorfakkan and at the same time, exporting the same values we have been able to create here, to new markets globally.
