Taking care of your valuables
since 1964

Vicenzasped is the first Italian company to specialize in transporting, shipping, and escorting valuables. Founded in 1964 by Mr. Valentino Lendaro as a domestic and international forwarding company, Vicenzasped has expanded over the years. It added domestic and international transportation of valuables and developed joint ventures with important partners in Europe and across the globe. It has been owned by the Lendaro-Damian family since its founding.
