It itself can be described as an entirely Lombard affair in terms of characters and methods: hard work, capacity for initiative, prudence and well-balanced courage. When Luigi Carcano senior begins to tackle the difficult job of a transporter, we are in the years in which Varese passes from the 324 industrial companies of the 1890 census to the 1671 of 1927: years of considerable industrial and commercial development. The Carcano brothers pay great attention to this reality: they understand in which direction the development of their city is heading and which perspectives, therefore, open up for their specific work. In 1920, the year of its foundation, the first transports were carried out with two “carriages”, with horses and mules and in 1927 the purchase of the first truck , a Fiat I and in the immediately following years of a 15 TEL which cost, at the time, 15,000 lire. After the Great War, day after day we get back to work, even heavy fatigue and we start planning for the future again. With the horses completely disappeared and the postal service ceased, the first major work of the Carcano company, the greatest attention is paid to the vehicle fleet and constant progress . This prerogative remains one of the most important characteristics of the way of working, of operating, of organizing the activity of the Carcano family. After the years of reconstruction, those of great development. On the scene his grandchildren Carlo, Enrico and Luigi Giovanni: a new generation more managerial, more suited to the situation and since then the growth has continued. Considerable dimensions are reached since the 80s and there is no large or medium-sized company in the Varese area that has not made use of the means and professionalism of Carcano. To this it should be added that the very structure of the company has expanded with the establishment in 1987 of Alto Lombarda Investimenti, a family financial company. Today the company boasts a portfolio of large national and multinational customers. We do not know what future history, progress, and its contradictions have in store for us. Everyone, men and companies, must deal with the society in which they operate and live, but, if the premises count, we would say that the foundations of the Carcano Group are solid. With the recent entry of Cesare and Corrado in fact there are now four generations with the same surname that have followed one another in this WORK HISTORY.
