Dp World Buys P&o May 2026

DP World's acquisition of P&O occurred in two distinct phases: the landmark $6.8 billion purchase of the parent company in 2006 and the strategic buy-back of P&O Ferries in 2019. Most recently, in December 2025, DP World unified its marine services brands—including P&O Ferrymasters and P&O Maritime Logistics—under a single global DP World identity .
