OUR BUSINESS

A key strength of GPH’s proposition to local stakeholders is our market leading cruise port development experience. Many cruise ports in operation today were created as an afterthought to a commercial port, often occupying old commercial quays and buildings. However, while such facilities helped to grow the industry, they are no longer suitable for the cruise industry of today.

Cruise ships are larger than ever, and cruise passengers expectations of what the cruise port experience should be has changed. As a result, many cruise ports require significant investment into the refurbishment or expansion of their berths, including the building of new berths. In addition, existing terminal facilities need to be refurbished or new state-of-the-art terminal facilities need to be built, including provision for retail and food & beverage outlets.

GPH has strong relationships with financial institutions globally and has a strong track record in securing the required project financing to finance such investment. Most importantly, we have the experience and track record to deliver the right kind of design and investment to transform cruise ports so that they can meet the demands and needs of not just today’s cruise lines and passengers but also tomorrows.
