CAVO LUIGI Beverage Solutions Since 1936 - Cruise Lines, Travel Retail & Duty Free

The Company:

Since 1936, with passion and professionalism, CAVO LUIGI distributes and resells wholesale duty-free drinks.

Thanks to the experience gained in almost 90 years in the industry, to date Cavo Luigi Beverage Solutions’ offer is not limited to the distribution of goods, but it also provides the right advice and competent support to business operators, and supplies reliable and long-term solutions in logistics.

We are an established enterprise of 20+ people in love with their work. We are ready to move mountains – and seas – to deliver punctually and to meet the demands of the operators who rely on us every day.

Our Story

During our years of activity spread over 3 generations, we have adopted the principle that grandfather Luigi taught us all:

to cope with the difficulties of an increasingly complex market, an appropriate administrative management and a solid and trustful relationship with customers and suppliers must be established and maintained.

1936

The company was founded. Grandfather Luigi Cavo started his wine trading business: delivered by pushcarts alongboard of the ships, this precious nectar crossed the sea to reach far away places and enhance the tables of ocean liners sailing to distant destinations.

1965

The company passed into the hands of his son Carlo who, forerunning trends and times, had the intuition to include spirits amongst his items for sale and therefore expanded the market.

1995

Carlo moved his operative headquarters to the innovative – at the time – Genoese commercial complex called Nuova Darsena.

2019

Cavo Luigi Company became Cavo Luigi Beverage Solutions Ltd., whose sole director is Luke Cavo. Earlier in 2004 Luke had begun expanding the range of products by adding beers and champagne. Furthermore, during those years, Luke set in motion important collaborations with the main brand owners of the world, thus giving way to a significant internationalization process.

TODAY

The company is currently in the midst of its digital transformation: it is therefore involved in the technological, cultural, organizational, social, creative and managerial renovations associated with the digital world. This process integrates and involves the entire business ecosystem, encouraging transparency, sharing and inclusion of all participants, including customers.

Code of Ethics

We stand by our customers until they reach their goals.

This is what we consider being a trusted partner. We have been doing it since 1936 with the same enthusiasm and attention of our first day.

Enthusiastic and satisfied customers and suppliers

Enthusiasm always makes a difference: it generates loyalty and it is estimated that one faithful customer is worth five new ones.

Sustained customers and suppliers’ satisfaction is our company’s policy aim.

Efficiency, Precision, Cordiality

Our company is made up of different departments coactively working together: consequently, our logistics has always been considered a symbol of efficiency.

We want to persist being a reference point, which is why we strive to constantly improve, flowing with the market’s innovation processes and dynamics.

Personal Growth

The people who live and work in our company are its soul, blending their differences in the uniqueness of both their own and the organization’s destiny.

Without these people the soul of the company is nothing or in any case it is “not enough”: through the moral and professional quality of its people the company gains its strength, making it a constantly perfectible organization.

Team Spirit

It means we are a crew: the group’s goal is clear, all the company components interact sharing methods and results in the name of organizational efficiency.

Team spirit is the means by which the company becomes convincing, expresses charisma and attractiveness to its external interlocutors, simultaneously attributing the meaning of “common victories” to its accomplishments.

Positive Climate and Quality of Life

The physical horizon surrounding a person engaged in work always affects the quality of his/her performance.

This influence is not only psychological or emotional, but also biological. Taking care of and improving the work environment therefore means giving everyone better opportunities to spend most of their day in harmony with their external context.

Ethics and Responsibility

Ethics imply respect for people and shared values, to comply with agreements and always be responsible for what occurs. This helps to create a positive climate built on agreements and collaboration between people.

Partecipation and Listening

To communicate and listen with passion. Good communication in the workplace and decision-wise always fosters the ability, both individually and collectively, to control daily experiences, and to evaluate how to increase its effectiveness and the degree of reciprocity, trust and motivation.

It means reducing distances and conflicts, understanding common problems, sharing team values and conveying them externally.
