The Port of Novi Sad, 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.
As of 2015, the Port of Novi Sad was the only port in Serbia that was state-owned, with other 11 ports being privatized. 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.
In March 2019, the Government of Serbia accepted the auction offer of "P&O Ports" to operate the port for 7.99 million euros. On 11 May, the agreement was finalized and "P&O Ports" thus was granted 25-year concession over the port.
