DP World Limassol Champions Breast Cancer Awareness With Strategic Donation

Empowering Health Initiatives

DP World Limassol, a leading figure in the port operations industry, has solidified its commitment to social responsibility by making a significant donation to Europa Donna Cyprus during Breast Cancer Awareness Month. This initiative underscores the company’s dedication to early detection and proactive support for those battling breast cancer.

Commitment To Community Well-Being

CEO Simon Pitout remarked that the donation is a testament to DP World Limassol’s longstanding belief in the power of collective action. “At DP World Limassol, we believe in the power of giving and are committed to making a meaningful and positive impact in our community,” he said. This contribution supports vital education and awareness efforts crucial for early diagnosis and improved patient care.

Global Reach And Local Impact

While firmly rooted in its local community, DP World’s global operations span six continents and employ over 100,000 professionals. The company’s robust network in Europe, which includes more than 250 locations and critical infrastructures such as deep-sea terminals and logistics centers, further illustrates its pivotal role in driving economic progress. This extensive footprint enhances its capacity to support initiatives that benefit public health and community well-being beyond its operational boundaries.

Advancing Advocacy And Support

Praising Europa Donna Cyprus for its invaluable work, Pitout highlighted the organization’s significant efforts in empowering patients and advocating for better health care in Cyprus. By aligning with Europa Donna during a crucial month, DP World Limassol not only contributes financially but also strengthens the broader mission of health education and community support that is essential for reducing breast cancer mortality.

Cyprus-Based ASBIS Hits Record $1.05bn In Monthly Revenue, Up 216% Year On Year

The technology distributor ASBIS Group, headquartered in Limassol, has exceeded $1 billion in monthly sales for the first time in its history, reporting preliminary consolidated revenue of $1.05 billion in September 2026, more than three times the amount recorded a year earlier.

The figure represents a 216% increase from $332 million in September 2025, making it the highest-revenue month in the company’s history.

ASBIS reported its strongest sales growth in servers and server components, while CEO Serhei Kostevitch pointed to growing demand for artificial intelligence solutions and computing infrastructure as an opportunity for the business.

For a company operating across Europe, the Middle East and Africa, September marked a new sales milestone following several months of substantial year-on-year growth.

Kostevitch attributed the record performance to the group’s existing operations, highlighting its broad product portfolio, international market presence and strong relationships with manufacturers and trading partners.

“Most importantly, this result is the outcome of our regular operating activities,” he said.

The CEO also highlighted the company’s portfolio of projects as a reason for confidence in continued AI-related development.

However, the group’s growth was not limited to AI-related technologies. Smartphones also performed strongly in September, with Kostevitch stressing that “we are growing beyond the AI segment as well.”

Kazakhstan, the United Arab Emirates and Ukraine accounted for the largest shares of ASBIS’s September revenue, followed by Slovakia and Poland.

Growth Follows Record First Half

September’s results follow a period of strong financial performance for ASBIS.

In July, the company reported preliminary consolidated revenue of $531 million, an increase of 89% compared with the same month in 2025. August brought a further rise to $604 million, up 91% year on year.

September’s $1.05 billion figure represents a substantial increase on both months, although the company has not provided a detailed breakdown explaining the acceleration.

The results also follow a record first half of 2026, when ASBIS generated approximately $2.97 billion in consolidated revenue, up 76% year on year.

Net profit after tax reached $80.6 million, compared with $19.4 million in the same period in 2025.

The second quarter was particularly strong, with revenue reaching $1.69 billion, an increase of 78.7%, while quarterly net profit more than tripled to $44.3 million.

ASBIS has emphasised that its September revenue figures are preliminary estimates and may differ from the final reported results.
