UAB-Online, a leading platform in maritime logistics that unifies industry stakeholders, has announced a strategic partnership with Digital Port Agency Limited (DPA), headquartered in the United Arab Emirates. The collaboration marks a significant milestone in UAB-Online’s expansion into the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region, which includes Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates. The partnership aims to enhance port logistics efficiency and promote operational excellence across the region.
Strategic Collaboration for Regional Growth
The partnership combines UAB-Online’s proven SaaS platform—renowned for optimising port logistics, safety, and compliance—with DPA’s strong regional presence, deep expertise in liquid bulk logistics, and established relationships across the GCC. Through this collaboration, UAB-Online will gain access to DPA’s extensive network in the UAE and the wider Gulf region, enabling the delivery of locally tailored, high-quality digital solutions.
More than a geographic expansion, the partnership represents a strategic entry for UAB-Online into one of the world’s fastest-evolving maritime and logistics hubs. As GCC nations continue to invest heavily in port infrastructure, digitalisation, and logistics innovation, the collaboration positions UAB-Online to support customers with advanced technologies that drive efficiency and sustainability.
“This partnership with Digital Port Agency marks a key moment for UAB-Online,” said Hans Bobeldijk, CEO of UAB-Online. “With DPA’s in-depth knowledge of port operations in the GCC and our technology, we are ready to deliver real value to maritime and logistics operators in the region. It’s an exciting step in our global journey.”
Frank de Leng, official reseller for UAB-Online in the GCC, added: “I see enormous potential in combining our technical capabilities with DPA’s regional expertise. Together, we will provide GCC customers with solutions designed for their unique challenges—enabling faster decision-making, improved efficiency, and more sustainable operations.”
