Our story
When borders become opportunities
Our story began in 1949 in Bolzano. FERCAM was born as a company for the transport of goods by rail and truck and these are the means of transport which gave the company its name: FERrovia-CAMion (i.e. precisely Rail-TRuck in Italian). The drive to integrate road and rail operations came about thanks to the efforts of Eduard Baumgartner, a road haulier originally from Fié who took over the company in 1963.
From that moment on, FERCAM has seen great expansion and internationalisation, which have made it today a unique multi-specialist operator while always remaining a family business. As being Fercam Turkey, we are a solution partner for many global companies through our offices in İstanbul and İzmir which we have opened in 2015 and 2016.
