Gruber Logistics has invested more than EUR2 million (USD2.2 million) in a transport hub in Verona, Italy.
With up to 100 employees and 70 loading ramps, Gruber said that the hub will strengthen its presence in European trade across the Alps.
Christian Gruber, president of Gruber Logistics, said: “This investment will allow us to further strengthen our position in logistics, international and domestic distribution and intermodal transportation.”
To support the establishment of the hub, Gruber Logistics has signed a contract with association Consorzio ZAI, which is responsible for the intermodal centre Interporto Quadrante Europa.
President of the Consorzio ZAI, Matteo Gasparato, said: “We are proud to welcome Gruber Logistics to the Interporto Quadrante Europa in Verona. Gruber Logistics’ decision to locate here confirms the Verona Freight Village’s ongoing commitment to providing high-quality services and state-of-the-art infrastructure.”
According to Gruber, its cooperation with Interporto Quadrante Europa has been in place for some time and includes collaboration in promoting key topics such as digitalisation and sustainability, in particular through joint involvement in research and innovation projects.
Meanwhile, the Italian logistics specialist said that it has almost doubled its turnover compared to the pre-covid period, thanks to organic growth and international acquisitions. Notably, Gruber integrated German heavy transport specialist Universal Transport in 2022.
