Frigor Trasporti Orobico

What Frigor Trasporti Orobico does

Frigor Trasporti Orobico Srl is an Italian third-party logistics provider specializing in cold chain transport and storage of perishable goods for the large organized retail distribution sector (Grande Distribuzione Organizzata). Founded in 1983 and headquartered in San Paolo d'Argon (Bergamo), the company operates a fleet of 225 vehicles (120 semitrailers, 15 trucks, and 90 road tractors) equipped with multi-temperature transport capability spanning +4°C to -20°C, enabling simultaneous handling of refrigerated and frozen products. The company is ATP-certified for international perishable goods transport compliance and operates HACCP-based hygiene and temperature control systems, with GPS-based tele-surveillance providing real-time cargo tracking for clients.

The company's service offering spans two integrated lines: Trasporti (cold chain transport with ATP-certified vehicles and real-time GPS monitoring) and Logistica (outsourced warehouse management for frozen and refrigerated foods, including storage, inventory handling, and distribution). Infrastructure includes a 3,500 sqm operational facility housing offices, warehouses, on-site fuel storage for fleet refueling, and a vehicle cleaning area. The business is subject to coordination by ItalTrans SpA, which functions as a parent/holding entity, and has been constituted as a Società a Responsabilità Limitata since January 1, 2002, with stated share capital of €80,000.

Commercially, Frigor Trasporti Orobico operates a direct B2B sales-led motion in which a dedicated Commercial Manager maintains ongoing client relationships through meetings and phone contact, with quote-based pricing negotiated per contract. Revenue derives from managed logistics services — transport and warehouse outsourcing — rather than per-unit transactions. The customer base is concentrated in the Italian large retail distribution vertical, with no publicly disclosed customer logos, no app or digital platform, and no disclosed revenue figures. The firm holds no disclosed patents, trademarks, or external funding; it is a privately held, operationally focused 3PL with approximately 40 years of cold chain domain experience.
