week. To fill the containers of the trains for export - he announced
the company - will be canned food, pasta and oil, as well as
Packaging. In imports, raw materials for food production,

Fabio Piliego, sales director of the GTS group,
recalled that "the intensification of the connection
Piacenza-Nola joins the services already activated
this year, namely Bari-Verona (January 2024), Bari-Nola
(February 2024) and Segrate-Pomezia (March 2024)". Lucio Punzo,
CEO of T.I.N. - Terminal Intermodale Nola,

the end of 2024 are just as positive."
