PSA International Pte Ltd is the world's second largest port operator in terms of container throughput handled, and is headquartered in Singapore, the base of its biggest operations where it has an overwhelming presence in the Port of Singapore. It also has significant operations in Belgium, Rotterdam and the Netherlands through a subsidiary called Hesse-Noord-Natie.

Its international presence is now felt in 18 port projects across 11 countries around the world, a result of its strategy to become a global port operating company since its first overseas venture in 1996.

History

In 2006 PSA entered into a bidding war with Dubai Ports World for the British company P&O, [link] but was outbid. [link]
