PORTS
Port of Livorno, two new warehouses of FHP MarterNeri inaugurated
Investment of more than 23 million euros
Livorno
May 28, 2026
This morning in the port of Livorno two new warehouses of a total of 17 square meters built by FHP MarterNeri of the FHP group with an investment of more than 23 million euros. The new structures were built with the conversion of two areas after the demolition of a warehouse and a cement plant of the last century and will be entirely dedicated to the storage of forest products, paper and pulp and will contribute to the to increase the total capacity of the port of Livorno.

By attending the ribbon-cutting ceremony and congratulating the excellent work done by the company that - he underlined - is a historical reality of the airport Livorno, the president of the Port System Authority of the Northern Tyrrhenian Sea, Davide Gariglio, highlighted that "Behind this intervention there is a deep trust in the potential of our port and its community". Recalling that the Port Authority is currently investing infrastructure for over 600 million euros and underlining that the development of the port requires continuous resources, Gariglio has specified that "public funds are not enough, they are needed - he said specified - private investments like this to grow. I hope that there are more and more entrepreneurs who, like FHP MarterNeri, choose to bet on the future of our airport".
