Gruppo Ibleo Trasporti

What Gruppo Ibleo Trasporti does

Gruppo Ibleo Trasporti s.r.l. is a privately-held, family-managed Italian logistics company headquartered in Ragusa, Sicily, that specializes in temperature-controlled road transport and cold-chain warehousing. Its core offering comprises three transport products - Trasporti Completi (full-load), Trasporti a Groupage (shared/less-than-truckload), and Trasporti Transit Point (platform-consolidated distribution) - together with a 2,000 sqm owned cold-storage facility in Ragusa containing four refrigerated cells (temperatures from +4°C to -20°C), three ante-cells for order preparation, eight loading docks, and capacity for approximately 2,000 pallet positions. The company serves primarily Italian large-scale retail distribution (grande distribuzione) and food producers, transporting fresh and frozen foods, fruit and vegetables, horticultural products, and pharmaceuticals; named enterprise customers include Stef Frozen Italia, Orogel, AIA, Bindi, Soavegel, Pizzolli, Seia, and others.

The technology base is conventional but specialized: a fleet of EURO6 refrigerated tractor-trailers (70% multi-temperature-equipped via partitions and dual evaporators as of 2017), GPS Termoking real-time tracking with remote temperature adjustment and door/breakdown alerts, and termo-registratori that produce auditable temperature documentation for HACCP and customer compliance. The company carries an unusually dense set of certifications - IFS Logistic (DNV-GL), Halal (first Sicilian transport company, 2017), OHSAS 18001, UNI ISO 45001 (2023), CE Mark REG.853/04 (number ITA385P) for the warehouse, and a 2025 DEKRA sustainable-tire attestation with Michelin - positioning it for food-safety-sensitive and Islamic-market cold-chain work.

Commercial model is sales-led B2B with quote-based pricing routed through a website contact form; customers specify service type, temperature class, origin/destination, and pallet volumes. Go-to-market is direct enterprise relationship management targeting retail distribution and food processors, with limited digital marketing presence. Revenue is generated by recurring transport contracts and recurring cold-storage subscriptions; pricing is not publicly disclosed. The company operates on a single owned facility, is bootstrapped (no disclosed funding rounds, parent, or institutional investors), and reports domestic Italian operations as its primary scope with international transport as a secondary line.

Functional benefit

Products and services

• Trasporti Completi (Full Load Transport) Full truckload refrigerated transport where a single sender fills the entire vehicle with their goods, for national and international routes, primarily serving large-scale food distribution customers with fresh, frozen, and pharmaceutical goods.
• Trasporti a Groupage (Groupage Transport) Shared refrigerated transportation where multiple senders load reduced quantities of goods into the same temperature-controlled vehicle, optimizing logistics costs for smaller shipments of perishable goods.
• Trasporti Transit Point Consolidated distribution service where deliveries are routed through a logistics platform before reaching the final customer, enabling efficient multi-stop temperature-controlled distribution.
• Deposito (Cold Storage Warehouse) Temperature-controlled warehouse of approximately 2,000 square meters in Ragusa, with four cold cells ranging from +4°C to -20°C, three ante-rooms for goods preparation and dispatch, eight loading docks, and capacity for approximately 2,000 pallet positions storing fruit, vegetables, juices, meat, fish, ice cream, and various frozen products.
