The company was founded in 1983 by Michele Magnisi, a young entrepreneur who has been involved in transportation from a very young age, learning the trade, above all, from his older brothers, Giovanni and Pasquale. After various corporate experiences, he decided to establish Magnisi Michele srl, facing the difficulties and uncertainties that always accompany new businesses. Michele, better known in the industry as "Michelino," puts his previous experiences to good use and, thanks to his ability to relate to customers and suppliers, begins the growth phase of the new company. He does this by surrounding himself with capable collaborators and calls to his side the one who will remain his longtime partner, Leo Pedone, who also comes from long experience in the field of trucking, despite his young age.

The 1980s was a period of steady growth for Magnisi Michele Ltd. The company established itself as one of Puglia's leading road transport players, serving Italian and European clientele, in the food transport .

Today, after 40 years of growth and innovation, Magnisi Michele s.r.l. is one of the important players in the field of road freight forwarding, although "Michelino", who passed away in 2021, is no longer at the helm.
