The Web Excellence Awards honor the world’s best digital experiences, spotlighting innovation, creativity and impact. The Website category highlights platforms with clear purpose, strong content, exceptional UX/UI, performance, accessibility and security.
In partnership with Horizontal Digital, a Sitecore Platinum Partner, DP World designed and delivered a next-generation digital platform that unifies more than 50 regional websites, brands, and services into a single intelligent experience spanning 75 countries.
George Smith, Regional Managing Director, EMEA at Horizontal Digital, said:
"This recognition reflects the strength of our partnership with DP World and the ability to deliver at scale. Together, we’ve created a platform that balances global governance with local flexibility – helping one of the world’s largest trade enablers set a new digital standard."
The best-in-class platform simplifies access to logistics and trade services, empowers local markets to create regionally relevant experiences, and ensures governance and brand alignment across every channel.
In parallel, another Horizontal Digital partner Miral also secured wins at the same awards – in the Tourism and eCommerce Platform categories (Opens in a new tab) – for the transformation of YasIsland.com into a commerce-ready, customer-centric digital experience.
