GNV, known as Grandi Navi Veloci, is an Italian maritime transportation operator based in Genoa, Liguria. It runs a network of about 33 routes that connect Italy—including Sardinia and Sicily—with Tunisia, Algeria, Morocco, Spain, France, Albania, and Malta. The network includes both domestic lines in Sicily and Sardinia and international routes across the western Mediterranean, with several destinations such as Genoa, Civitavecchia, Naples, Palermo, Olbia, Barcelona, Tunis, Tangier, Algiers, and Malta. The company works within the maritime sector to promote maritime motorways of the sea, aiming to offer a cost-effective alternative to road freight and to reduce heavy truck traffic on national road networks. In 2026, GNV expanded facilities in Genoa and completed its first LNG bunkering in Genoa using the GNV Aurora, reflecting ongoing infrastructure development and a move toward cleaner fuel options.
