The Port of Novi Sad (Serbian: Лука Нови Сад), officially named DP World, is a cargo and passenger port on the Danube river in Novi Sad, Serbia.

History[]

The Port of Novi Sad was established in 1982 and by 1984, it became an international river port.[4]

As of 2015, the Port of Novi Sad was the only port in Serbia that was state-owned, with other 11 ports being privatized.[4] Since then, there were several unsuccessful attempts to privatize it. In 2016 calendar year, the Port of Novi Sad made a historic high load turnover of 1.18 million tonnes, the most of any port in Serbia.[2]

In March 2019, the Government of Serbia accepted the auction offer of "P&O Ports" to operate the port for 7.99 million euros.[5][6] On 11 May, the agreement was finalized and "P&O Ports" thus was granted 25-year concession over the port.[7]
