About Interporto Toscano Amerigo Vespucci S.p.A.
The company Interporto Toscano Amerigo Vespucci S.p.A.

Retro Porto – Just 5 Kilometres From the Port of Livorno

Our Community
We recognise the value and importance, for our present and our future, of the companies established in our areas by committing to the development of quality services dedicated to the Interporto Vespucci Community.
Before 1987
As the place name suggests, the Piana di Guasticce was a large wetland plain located just behind the Port of Livorno. Flooded for most of the year, it was unsuitable for agricultural activities.
1987
The company Interporto Toscano Amerigo Vespucci S.p.A. arose from a public partnership.
1987
1995
The first surveys, actually taken on a boat, immediately revealed the inconsistency of the soils. Up to the end of 1995, field tests, research and experimentation activities were conducted by various engineering firms of national and international importance in order to determine the most effective reclamation operations for this area.
1995
1997
Firstly, a huge drainage project was implemented for the entire Guasticce zone, even beyond the area strictly coinciding with the perimeter of the Interporto. The low waters were directed towards a large drainage system, whilst the high waters were dammed and subsequently directed towards alternative routes.
1997
2000
It was only after hydrogeological safety measures had been put in place that backfilling operations were possible, to a depth of about two metres, in order to bring the ground level in line with the project, operations that were necessary for the actual construction of the Interporto platform.
The backfill material was initially sourced from quarries in the surrounding areas and in the lower Maremma. Later on, thanks to an agreement with Rete Ferroviaria Italiana S.p.A. and the Superintendency of the Region of Tuscany, excavated soil from the worksite for the high-speed rail link in the Apennine Tunnels was brought in through the very first Florence-Guasticce rail link.
2000
Early 2000s
Throughout the 2000s
Interporto Toscano proceeded with the construction of the remaining infrastructure, such as the asphalt roads (11 kilometres), water pipes (15 kilometres), electricity lines (400 kilometres), 14 MV-LV transformer stations, as well as other offices and warehouses. During this period, ITAV carried out real estate construction and sales activities.
2002 - 2012
2002
The Unione Interporti Riuniti (U.I.R.) S.p.A. was founded, working to promote and develop intermodality.
2009
Trailer Service S.r.l. was established to take care of the management and parking of transport vehicles and to handle freight.
2011
Cold Storage Custom S.r.l. was established to manage the warehouses and customs areas for third-party freight requiring cold storage.
2012
The financial situation was “deeply unbalanced and complicated to manage”.
2013
A financial restructuring plan began alongside the definition of the 2013–2023 Strategic Plan, on the basis of which the first capital increase was resolved.
2015
The Shareholders’ Meeting introduced into the corporate purpose the objective of developing the strategic status of the Retro Porto of the Port of Livorno.
2013 - 2015
2015 -2017
The three-year turning point saw the start of property divestments and the reduction of bank debt, the conclusion of all pending court cases, an increased use of the Palazzina A. Vespucci building and countless interventions in terms of quality processes, training activities and the adoption of new management tools and services for companies and freight, including the certified weighing machine.
2015 - 2017
2018
Interporto Toscano activated the process to become an ASDC (Altro Sistema Distribuzione Chiuso, or Other Closed Distribution System), as a private electricity network that distributes energy within an industrial, commercial or service site.
