Yesterday, 1100 cars from one of Beijing’s automotive Big Four, Dongfeng, were unloaded at the eastern shore of the Darsena Toscana.

The unloading and handling activities from the quay were coordinated by CILP. The vehicles were subsequently stored at the Autoparco il Faldo, one of the most extensive car logistics facilities in Europe, equipped with internal railway connections and full services, managed by the company Xca since May 2025.

“We chose Il Faldo for the potential of its services – comments Tommaso Conti, board member of Xca and operational manager of Il Faldo– We are extremely happy to have brought this infrastructure back to the center of port logistics for the automotive industry, proposing it as a reference point for international flows arriving from the Far East. Livorno represents the main port for car imports with about 630,000 vehicles, to which we add our 55 years of experience in managing car import and export. I remember the year 1970 when my grandfather started the export business of Peugeots produced in France and destined for the Maghreb countries.”
