ILT Logistics

What ILT Logistics does

ILT Logistics SA is a Greek international road transport and logistics operator founded in 1991 (originally as ITALY LINES ΕΠΕ, restructured to S.A. in 2015) and headquartered in Aspropyrgos near Athens, with a secondary branch in Thessaloniki (Kalohori). The company runs a fleet of approximately 50 owned and leased trucks and operates 4,000 pallet positions of warehousing capacity across two facilities, providing groupage (LTL), full-truckload (FTL), 3PL warehousing, special cargo handling, and exhibition logistics services. Its core operational footprint is the Greece-Italy corridor, with daily departures to 11+ Italian destinations and weekly services covering 15 European countries; the company is a member of the PANECO network (Greece/Cyprus) and the ELVIS European logistics network, and in October 2023 added a partnership with Italian operator Sogedim SpA to extend coverage into Lombardy and Piemonte.

The business model is asset-based road transport combined with value-added 3PL warehousing, monetized through per-shipment groupage pricing, FTL contracts, pallet-based storage fees, and specialized handling premiums for special cargo and expo logistics. The customer base spans SMB and mid-market shippers across multiple verticals (food production, exhibitions, general commerce), with ISO 9001:2015 certification, BCP/DRP since 2015, and a reported 0.0002% damage rate supporting enterprise-grade quality positioning. The company is private and founder-managed, with a reported headcount of 11-50 employees.

Operationally, ILT is structured around network partnership leverage rather than proprietary asset scale: it uses PANECO and ELVIS to access 100+ European interchange points, and supplements its owned fleet with leased capacity to flex demand. Sustainability initiatives (electric forklifts since 1998, up to 30% renewable energy, Triple Bottom Line adoption) are positioned as operational differentiators. There is no disclosed AI/ML capability beyond conventional transport management systems, and the technology profile is that of a traditional mid-market European freight forwarder augmented by network memberships and warehouse integration.

Revenue model

1. Groupage (LTL) Transport Services: ILT's core revenue stream is the consolidation of less-than-truckload (LTL) shipments from multiple customers into shared truckloads. Customers pay per shipment or per pallet, benefiting from shared transport costs. Daily departures to 11 points in Italy and weekly departures to 15 European countries underpin this recurring revenue stream.
2. Full Truck Load (FTL) Transport Services: Dedicated full truckload transport where an exclusive vehicle is assigned to a single customer's shipment. Revenue is earned per shipment based on distance, cargo type, and service requirements. ILT operates owned and leased fleet to fulfill FTL contracts.
3. Third Party Logistics (3PL) and Warehousing Services: Outsourced logistics services including warehousing, order fulfillment, receiving, and packaging. Customers (importers and exporters) outsource part or full operational logistics to ILT, generating recurring revenue through storage fees, handling charges, and fulfillment service fees.
4. Special Cargo Transport Services: Specialized transport for high-value cargo, bulky goods, and sensitive shipments requiring planning, confidentiality, and dedicated execution teams. Revenue is generated per mission based on complexity, risk profile, and exclusivity requirements.
5. Exhibition (Expo) Transport Services: End-to-end transport and delivery of exhibition materials including products and stand construction equipment to any European venue. Services include planning, overall supervision, and logistical execution of transport projects for exhibition participants.
