Expanded intermodal reach between Sweden–Southern Italy

News

13 MAY 2026

Nurminen Logistics is expanding its rail-first intermodal offering between Sweden and Italy through cooperation with GTS General Transport Service S.p.A, enabling seamless rail connections from Sweden to key destinations in Southern Italy.

Freight is transported by rail from Nurminen’s Nordic Hub in Frövi, Sweden, near Örebro, to Parma in Northern Italy. From Parma, shipments continue by rail with GTS to strategic destinations in Southern Italy, including Napoli, Bari, and Catania.

The entire journey is completed using the same transport unit, with no transloading required along the route. This reduces handling, improves speed and cost efficiency, minimizes operational risk, and ensures a seamless end-to-end transport solution — all managed through one booking and one point of contact.

What this means for you:

Direct rail connectivity between Sweden and Southern Italy

Seamless rail transport from across Sweden, including Northern Sweden, to key destinations in Southern Italy.

Suitable for both FTL and LTL shipments

Flexible transport solutions for both full truckloads and groupage shipments.

Efficiency and cost savings

One transport unit throughout the journey reduces handling, improves speed, and lowers costs.

One booking – one point of contact

You book with Nurminen Logistics, and we handle the entire transport chain.

Operational notes:

  • Bari: Bari serves as the gateway to the Puglia region and the Adriatic coast, with onward connections to domestic Italian markets and routes into the Western Balkans.
  • Catania: Catania in Sicily provides access to one of Italy's most important southern markets, reducing transit complexity for island-bound freight.
  • Napoli: Napoli anchors coverage of the Campania region and the Tyrrhenian coast, with strong onward port connectivity for Mediterranean distribution.
