THE HISTORY

Transport since 1960, the year in which Andrea Tonoli, by means of his own motor vehicle, started the activity of distributing goods locally.

With the entrance of his sons, Mauro and Ennio at the end of the 70’s, the one-man business transformed into a General Partnership and the company started to grow and branch out into new national and international markets.

Thanks to the day to day experience matured in the field and to the logistically optimal geographic location, the company always gathers more and more transport requests to and from the Spanish market; and so started to invest in new vehicles to widen its fleet and to be able to manage the greatest number of customers and to repay trust.

At the end of the 80’s the “Tonoli Spedizioni S.r.l.”, an Italian commercial lifeblood and forwarding agent in every respect was established and is regularly on the register.

Over the years, they were joined by the Tonoli Iberica Spedizioni and the Tonoli Portoguesa, necessary to organise and coordinate the entire International traffic network and widespread distribution between Italy, Spain and Portugal.

The success of this expansion is without doubt due to the shrewd choice of the society, in the belief and promoting the specialization in traffic with the Iberian peninsula; a vast territory with peculiar characteristics.

A land which, other than its beauty and history making it a tourist destination, offers an infinity of commercial opportunities in more
varied sectors.

A market in constant growth, with an evident unbalance between demand and offer, goods to be forwarded and available vehicles for the various traffic routes. A market, therefore that needs to monitor and continuously adapt in forwarding, based on the flow of import/export traffic, in the various commodity sectors.

The company’s investments have not stopped at structure creativity and purchasing vehicles, but have carried on and oriented to Quality.

Investing in information backing and in specialized technical staff able to professionally respond to new market trends in terms of transport quality and ability to retrace goods.

All of the Tonoli companies are certified in accordance with the requirements of the international standard ISO 9001, certificates issued in first edition in 1998 from SGS.

Constant commitment has born fruit and we are proud to serve and satisfy the beauty of 1200 customers that compose our portfolio, which consist of companies of primary importance in their sectors, that range from food to wines and spirits, clothing to textile as well as the car, glass, paper and industrial machinery sectors.

Behind the more than 40.000 forwardings carried out by us each year, is a homely environment, a human face, a beating heart dealing with customers that always find a professional partner, trustworthy, competitive, but elastic and flexible with its own structural and market requirements.

Always being sensitive to problems and to market demands in our sector, at the end of the 90’s Tonoli started investing in real estate to be able to store goods, and so offering a solid and concrete support to customers that need this type of service other
than the simple forwarding of goods.

There were many varied expansion developments of the structure that were finished in 2004 with 10.000 sq m of covered warehouse, served by 16 flaps and with 20.000 sq m square.
