In 2026, a new high-profile logistics route will connect Italy to the United States: approximately 500 containers will be exported from the Russi facility, in the province of Ravenna, as part of an industrial project developed in collaboration with Kubota Corporation.
Founded in 1890 in Osaka, Kubota is today one of the world’s leading industrial groups in the fields of agricultural machinery, construction equipment and water management solutions, with a strong international footprint.
The operation stems from a structured and well-established collaboration between Express Global, Century Distribution Systems and Kubota, marking a further step in Express Global’s ongoing consolidation of the US market.
In 2026 alone, the partnership between Express Global and Century Distribution Systems has already enabled the export of approximately 10,000 TEUs, almost exclusively destined for the United States.
A clear sign of the strength and continuity of this strategic cooperation.
