What Gonzalez Gaggero Sl does

Gonzalez Gaggero SL is a privately-held Spanish customs brokerage and international trade services firm founded in 1914 and headquartered in Algeciras, Cádiz, alongside the Puerto Bahía de Algeciras. The company provides customs clearance and representation services — including import/export declarations, transits, customs warehouse (DVD) procedures, and ADR-classified dangerous goods management — available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, including nighttime declaration handling. It holds FULL Authorized Economic Operator (OEA/AEO) certification covering simplifications and security, enabling centralized national customs representation at any Spanish customs office through branch offices in Cádiz and Puerto de Motril and a network of representatives.

The company operates a multi-product services portfolio built around core customs brokerage, complemented by specialized offerings: textile traffic management (RPP, ETT, RPA with approved IT control systems for Passive Perfectioning Regime), EORI registration and management, ENS/EXS declarations under the ICS2 system, origin certificate processing (EUR1, EurMed, supplier declarations), deferred VAT (IVA Diferido) advisory, SRMT submission via TELEPORT 2.0 for RoRo/Ro-PAX vessels, and emerging compliance advisory for Spain's plastic packaging tax and CBAM regulations. The technology layer consists of procedural and compliance tooling — VisualTrans client portal, AEAT-integrated customs declaration systems, and TELEPORT 2.0 port management integration — without disclosed AI/ML capabilities.

The business model is professional services revenue on a quote-based, pay-as-you-go basis, with sales-led direct engagement targeting importers, exporters, and transport/logistics companies in Spain. Distribution relies on physical offices, dedicated account relationships, and a client portal for existing customers, with no disclosed public pricing, recurring subscriptions, or named enterprise contracts. Geographic scope is concentrated in Andalusia with national reach through the AEO centralized clearance authorization. The company is privately held, has no parent or subsidiary structure, no external funding rounds, and an employee headcount in the 11-50 range.
