Fischer & Rechsteiner is an international freight forwarder. Its main line of business are the sea and air shipments, with particular specialization in the areas of Latin America, Australasia and the Mediterranean/Middle East.
The history of our society in Italy begins in 1953 (but the history of our name was born in 1870), with a registered capital of 950,000 old liras, in a rented office near the center of the city of Lecco. The company then moved into a broader owned structure on the outskirts of Lecco in a zone strategically connected to the road system in Lombardy. This was followed by the opening of branches in the most important economic areas of Italy.
Our history
It was the year 1953 when Fischer & Rechsteiner was established. On the 29 th of April of... quite a long time ago, but not so far away at the eyes of the persons who were present at the time and who lived in first person those years. A period evanishing in a remote past and in a completely different time for the youngest ones.
Terminal and means of transport
The main terminal directly owned used by Fischer & Rechsteiner to handle their activity cover a surface of more than 4.000 sq. mts., where the offices are located well as the 3.000 sq mts covered warehouses and the means maneouvre square.
No Profit and sponsorships
Sometimes it is nice to live not only of business and of profit. There have been occasions when we too, we have been happy and proud of putting our activity, our professional skills as well as our knowledge and contacts at disposal of the exigencies of the less lucky people.
Our territory
La società ha mosso i propri primi passi nella sua iniziale ubicazione nel centro di Lecco, in via Ghislanzoni: qualche locale in affitto ed un limitato spazio di manovra per gli automezzi di clienti e fornitori.
Negli anni ’70, il trasferimento nel nuovo terminal di proprietà a Valmadrera (strategicamente posto sulla direttrice stradale Milano-Lecco), specificatamente costruito per lo svolgimento della nostra attività.
