RGL Logistics

What RGL Logistics does

RGL Logistics S.r.l. is an Italian customs brokerage and freight forwarding company headquartered in Naples that provides end-to-end import/export logistics with a specialization in temperature-controlled food products (frozen seafood, meat, and pharmaceuticals). Operationally, the firm runs branch offices at five major Italian ports — Naples (head office), Milan, Livorno, Salerno, and Gioia Tauro — and operates two warehousing and distribution platforms in Gricignano d'Aversa and San Nicola la Strada for post-customs, controlled-temperature storage and downstream distribution in Campania and across Italy.

The company's core service stack combines customs clearance, multi-modal freight management (sea, land, air), cargo insurance, and door-to-door transport coordination. It is differentiated by proprietary customs management software that supports rapid goods release, a daily health-certification submission system (PCF) for the frozen supply chain at Italian ports, and an official guarantee deposited with the Italian Customs Agency that enables deferred VAT payment on extra-EEA imports for clients. An armored-container partnership extends its service into cargo security out of the Port of Naples.

Commercially, RGL pursues an enterprise field-sales GTM targeting national and international frozen-food importers/exporters, with quote-based pricing per shipment and no self-serve channel. The company is privately held as an Italian S.r.l., reports 11–50 employees, has no disclosed funding or M&A history, and operates with a multilingual Italian/English/Spanish corporate website but no broader marketing or digital channel presence.
