Strategic Partnership Beneficial to Both Marangoni & Fedi Gomme

Italy’s Fedi Gomme Srl, a provider of total tyre outsourcing for large transport fleets, has established a strategic partnership with the Marangoni Group. This partnership, says Marangoni, will allow Fedi Gomme to expand its business abroad and Marangoni to create a replicable model for the benefit of its customers.

The transport and logistics business is evolving, and an increasing number of companies are now finding it significantly more convenient to outsource the management of their tyres to specialist companies. Fedi Gomme, as one such service provider, has as customers some of the main players in the Italian logistics and road transport industry.

“We pioneered mileage-based tyre management, building our experience step-by-step starting from the early ‘90s”, commented Giuseppe Zecchi, managing director of Fedi Gomme Srl. “I realised that alone we would not be able to make headway in a sector that is mainly dominated by new tyre manufacturers. For the last few years I have been looking for an industrial partner that could help us compete at the same level.

“Thanks to the Marangoni Group,” Zecchi continued, “we can now start thinking about expanding our horizons and offering even more specialist services. Currently we have 14 mobile workshops of all types and sizes, with the ability to operate over the short and long range. Specific equipment and innovative solutions allow our service technicians to work in any weather and in all conditions.”

“The principle of aggregation means that technological knowledge, managerial culture, business management and IT support can become a common and shared asset,” explained Massimo de Alessandri, CEO of Marangoni Spa. “Research and innovation, which are only possible with considerable investments, give life to new products and services to supply to our key customers. I believe that the partnership with Fedi Gomme Srl is a field test for the further advancement of Marangoni professionals, being a fundamental aspect in the philosophy of quality.

“Marangoni professionals”, De Alessandri continued, “are not only good at understanding the specific needs of each individual customer and at replacing tyres, but also at emphasising prevention as a means to ensure the safety and efficiency of any vehicle. All these characteristics mean that large road transport fleets and municipal corporations can have full confidence in our professionals and our customers.”
