The Cap San Lorenzo container ship, operated by Hamburg Sud, is moored to the dock beneath ship to shore cranes during loading operations at DP World’s London Gateway deep-sea port in Stanford-le-Hope, UK. Shareholders of DP World have approved buying Economic Zones World from its majority shareholder and also backed the port operator’s delisting from the London Stock Exchange, the Dubai-based company has said. The assent was granted at a meeting on Thursday, as the proposals received near-unanimous support from independent shareholders, DP World said in a London bourse filing. DP World last month said it would pay $2.6bn to Dubai World for its EZW logistics infrastructure firm and would delist from the London bourse due to thin trading volumes. Dubai World owns 80.45% of DP World.
