Industrial and commercial vehicles dealer

 
 

Adriatica Veicoli Industriali (AVI) started in 1985 thanks to an idea of its founder Mr. Piva Lino.

Mr. Piva started his business in the 1950’s when he opened a garage for truck repairs in Rimini. Since then the company has been growing steadily.
Infact the company grew so quickly that in 1960 Mr. Piva felt that it was necessary to build a bigger garage easy to reach, so he bought some land near Rimini, along side the motorway SS16 and set up his garages and offices which now cover 2.000 square meters.

In 1970 his great business skills led to the opening of another branch just by the motorway exit in the north of Rimini, in order to offer a better service to trucks coming from all over Italy and road assistance for cars (ACI).

In 1985 the excellent service and assistance together with an increasing number of customers, resulted in the decision to start selling the prestigious Volvo Industrial Vehicles.

In 1990 the premises were doubled resulting in 2.000 square meters of covered surface area and 20.000 square meters of uncovered surface area.

In 1996 as the Company was growing steadily, Mr. Piva adhered to the ISUZU project in order to become leader in the Italian market too, by commercialising Isuzu veichles and thus covering the last sector of the market which was missing and that is, small and medium size work vehicles and four wheel drive jeeps.
This choice was dictated by the need to satisfy customer requirements to the full, from cars to heavy industrial vehicles.

Today the company employs 90 people and our company has always put “customer satisfaction” first so, in 1997 we were awarded the ISO 9001 certificate as a recognition of our success.

Even second – hand truck sales which take place on an area of 10.000 square meters, are carried out in the same professional way, which allows us to compete with the best national traders.

The area coverage is guaranteed by five show-rooms, all connected to the headquarters in Rimini.

Our services are well organized and guaranteed by 14 authorized garages well distributed in the area who are giving efficent and rapid assistance.

The high level of specializazion of our mechanics is guaranteed by regular up-dating from Volvo/Isuzu and with the use of the modern computer system.

Our customers know that we provide not only trucks and services but we are also professional and correct in our business transactions.

In the last few decades the world of industrial vehicles has changed considerably and today, AVI is an important reference point because we have been able to keep-up with all great modern progress.

Today our must is: “customer satisfaction first of all”.
