Franzosini, a recognized name in transport, logistics, and shipping, has reached a significant milestone by obtaining double AEO (Authorised Economic Operator) certification in both Italy and Switzerland. This remarkable achievement, encompassing certification for both the customs (Customs) and security (Security) aspects, adds to the prestige of the Franzosini group, already holding an AEO Customs certification in Italy since June 2011.
While AEO qualification was not mandatory for Franzosini, it has been the focus of the company’s attention and efforts. This status acknowledges high competence in compliance with customs regulations, the use of an adequate accounting system, financial solvency, and adherence to security standards. All of this ensures that the entire Franzosini group can benefit from significant customs and security facilitations, all to the advantage of the clients.
Recognized as a secure partner in the global logistics chain, this success underscores the company’s commitment to quality, integrity, and sustainable growth.
In practical terms, AEO-certified companies, usually large in size, tend to operate with equally certified customs partners. Obtaining AEO qualification requires rigorous analysis by customs authorities. Once achieved, it offers particular facilitations in security controls, such as a reduction in information in summary declarations or priority treatment of shipments if selected for customs control.
A Milestone of Success: Franzosini’s Competitive Advantage Through AEO Certification
The benefits are numerous, not only for Franzosini but also for its partners and clients. From improving internal procedures, recognizing quality in international trade, to reducing the time spent on customs formalities. Moreover, within the European Union, AEO certification grants a privileged channel in customs controls in Italy.
For Franzosini, the attainment of the AEO certificate is not only an essential recognition but also a significant competitive advantage. The entire Franzosini group is now considered by Customs Authorities as a reliable and secure partner throughout the entire logistics chain, offering and guaranteeing high-quality services and managing the customs supply chain in complete safety. This translates into fewer bureaucratic issues for clients and faster times and controls.
This success is a clear example of Franzosini’s commitment to operating with integrity, efficiency, and competence and represents a further step forward in the company’s ongoing and sustainable growth within the global logistics industry.
