Federdistribuzione signs the new Protocol of Legality with the Ministry of the Interior

Federdistribuzione has signed a new Protocol of Legality with the Ministry of the Interior, which implements and strengthens the provisions of the agreements already signed in 2013 and 2017.

The Protocol was signed by Matteo Piantedosi, Minister of the Interior, and Carlo Alberto Buttarelli, President of Federdistribuzione.

The aim of the renewal is to further strengthen cooperation between Federdistribuzione, the Ministry of the Interior, the prefectures and police headquarters at local level, consolidating the tools for preventing and combating illegal activities that may involve modern distribution companies.

The new Protocol pays particular attention to the issue of the security of logistics hubs, the activation of a new tool for monitoring the legality of suppliers and the establishment of a commission for legality and security, tasked with ensuring a constant exchange of information and addressing the main critical issues affecting the distribution sector.

“By signing the new Protocol of Legality, we are further strengthening the sector’s commitment to preventing and combating illegal activities, through increasingly structured cooperation with the Ministry of the Interior and local security bodies. The new agreement also represents an important tool for promoting ongoing discussion and the exchange of information on the main issues that modern retail companies face,” said Carlo Alberto Buttarelli, President of Federdistribuzione.
