Fruit Logistica 2020 - Berlin, 5-7 February.
"the world's leading exhibition event in the fruit and
vegetable sector"
The participation of the Ports of Genoa in the 27th edition of
Fruit Logistica, the world's leading exhibition event in the fruit
and vegetable sector (production, transport, logistics and
distribution), which saw the presence of 3,300 exhibitors and 80,000
visitors, successfully concluded Italy to play a prominent role
(three dedicated pavilions).
The Ports of Genoa stand, organized by the Port System Authority
together with CISCO and the shipping community partners (Spediporto,
Assagenti, Isomar and SV Users Union) allowed the logistic-port
cluster of Genoa and Savona, leader in the Mediterranean for numbers
and know-how, to present its varied offer of services for the fruit
and vegetables and refrigerated products sector. 400,000 tons of
fruit and over 120,000 refrigerated containers passed through the
terminals of Vado Ligure, Savona, Pra 'and Genoa in 2019, for the
import of tropical fruit and in counter-season from West Africa, the
Caribbean and countries of the southern hemisphere, and vegetables
from the countries of the southern shore of the Mediterranean, a
segment which has shown significant growth in recent years.
During the three days of the fair, the Ports of Genoa stand
hosted a series of in-depth events on the various aspects of the
transport chain (new technological solutions, port and intermodal
services, specialist training) and networking moments offered by the
shipping community (Spediporto, Assagenti , Isomar Union Users and
associations of terminal operators), present at the fair with about
thirty representatives of sales and management. Ports of Genoa also
participated in the seminar "Liguria, the new hub for reefer
logistics services" organized by Confcommercio International at
the Liguria Region stand, which for the first time took part in the
Berlin event, providing a brilliant showcase for the enhancement of
Ligurian excellences. Also presented on this occasion are the news
relating to the two main terminals of the Ligurian port system: APM
Terminals Vado Gateway, inaugurated last December, and PSA Genova
Prà, the first terminal in Italy for handling containers.
