Gianni Punzo: A MODEL OF ENTREPRENEURIAL investigated for CAMORRA BELL
Riportiamo un articolo pubblicato su "Il Manifesto" del 7 gennaio 2009 a cura di Andrea Palladino nel quale si racconta in breve la storia del "Cav. Gianni Punzo".
Non facciamo altri commenti.
"Pannazzaro" si faceva chiamare. Erano i tempi di Piazza Mercato a Napoli, la bolgia infernale di negozi che vendevano di tutto, all'ingrosso, al minuto, come capitava. Gianni Punzo ha ancora il suo cuore di mercante radicato in quella piazza. Oggi che il suo "sistema Nola" lo ha reso forse uno degli imprenditori più influenti del sud Italia, in pochi ricordano la sua strepitosa carriera, che ha avuto il suo lancio ufficiale nel 1986, benedetto da Bettino Craxi in persona. La bolgia di Piazza Mercato venne trasferita a una ventina di chilometri, alle porte della città vesuviana di Nola, poco più di trentamila abitanti.
Si chiama Cis la prima creatura di Punzo, il pannazzaro, Centro sviluppo ingrosso. Ha conquistato poco a poco la zona dei Regi Lagni, la fertilissima plain of Nola, where farming families for centuries have cultivated the true garden of Campania. Today Punzo next to the first creature designed and created a real business district, providing the former Market Square merchants gathered in Cis Interporto Campano, the engine of logistics southern Italy. A railway station, shuttle linking the warehouses at the Port of Naples, customs ready to welcome the world and to return the goods made in Italy. Six banks, one controlled by the former cloth merchant from Naples. And now a "volcano good", designed by Renzo Piano, a mega shopping mall in the shape of Mount Vesuvius, which is home to supermarkets, boutiques, cinemas and restaurants.
E ' Punzo's hard to describe the empire. If the heart is beating fast and secure in the lands of Nola, his hand as an entrepreneur is flying away in the heart of the jungle, in the Brazilian Amazon. In Manaus the pannazzaro carry out a major Latin American inland, joining the floating port built by the British one hundred years ago the zone wanted by the military in 1967, the roads that cut through the forest - and produce as much CO2 - that local government is reopening. A center of trade and business, a market square in the heart of the forest, tied to Colombia, Venezuela, Brazil. Nola comes from a platform in the business center of northern Brazil, where soybean fields and the Japanese hi-tech industrial district of Manuas - all tax-free - join, merge, moving money, lots of money. Manaus is now among the top four cities in Brazil's gross domestic product and is promising: a new gasodotto increase the electric power, while the migration from the rest of Brazil keeps labor costs "competitive."
The jump to the new markets for the patron system Nola comes after the conclusion of other important agreements. Punzo in 2007 paved the way for China to trade in CIS, with the opening of a twin in Tianjin, where the bell provides a hub port of trade exchange between the Italian and the Asian tiger.
The agreement with Brazil strengthens the position of Punzo. Earlier this year the governor of Amazonas, Edward Braga, came up with Nola to see the wonders of the plain of miracles. Next to "volcano good," glittering showcase, the governor visited the center that houses a thousand businesses, providing over seven billion euro turnover, a figure that is growing every year. And he knew the real "volcano" in Campania, Gianni Punzo that it will arrive in Manaus as an entrepreneur with success guaranteed. The lovely fable could end here. If the Brazilian Amazon is the land of magical realism that enriches the stories of the great writers of northern Brazil, the land is capable of Campania to give stories of contrasts, of great misery and not very noble business.
was 1981 when he began the great rise of the "pannazzaro" Punzo. He came from a family of sellers of ladies' underwear - now one of the strengths of Cis di Nola - and knew how to sell a few. His dream of bringing the old market area of \u200b\u200bNaples in the new city of commerce had paid off with many interests. Gets the go-ahead from the town of Nola, and entrusted the work of building the Intercoor Spa coordinated interventions by the municipality is able to obtain a discount on infrastructure works that go from three billion to less than one. Helping
Punzo - according to the reconstruction made by the historian Francesco Barbagallo has analizzato diversi processi della Dda di Napoli – fu Carmine Alfieri, che mediò tra il commerciante e il sindaco di allora Aniello Napolitano.
"Il Punzo mi aveva detto di avere dei problemi relativi alle concessioni edilizie" , racconterà il 24 settembre 1994 Carmine Alfieri, ricostruendo i rapporti tra la camorra e l'imprenditoria campana, con la mediazione della politica della prima repubblica. Una testimonianza che dopo qualche mese costò l'arresto a Punzo, con un processo finito con la prescrizione del reato di favoreggiamento ai clan.
La nascita del Cis avviene durante lo scontro di potere tra il gruppo di Carmine Alfieri e quelli di Cutolo. Per Alfieri la conoscenza diretta di Punzo was undoubtedly important. "Carmine Alfieri, in the early '60s - says Barbagallo - and operated a furniture store in San Jose Vesuvius, here he met Punzo, who came to sell her lingerie" .
According to historical reconstructions of it was the Cis project to strengthen ties between the two.
collaborator Justice Galasso - who told the Naples prosecutors development of the power of the Camorra after the earthquake - that would confirm the strong link existed between the two. "The report Punzo between Alfieri and was very strong - he told magistrates in the interrogation in June of 1994 - in the sense that the first was all that the second asked. I myself met Punzo - continued Galasso - often in places where Alfieri was the fugitive ". For
"panazzaro" - which he defended himself in the process with the vigor of the old merchant from Naples - in fact they were the Camorra, which kept him under extortion. A thesis believed only in part by the judges, who declassified the original charges of aiding in association Camorra: the fact of not having denounced the demands of the Alfieri clan put it in a borderline situation.
Today, those stories about relationships with the families of the Camorra Punzo has left the books, that resist even in history courses at the University. But no one speaks more of those tumultuous years after the earthquake, when a law of 1984 allowed the use of controls with little money for reconstruction.
Punzo - Ten years after the end of the process that linked its name with that of the heads of the Camorra - is presented to the world as the greatest exponent of Naples "working." The system Nola, on the other hand, is the epitome of southern Italy: Here it combines commerce, speed, connection.
Punzo's empire in the plain of Nola, seen from above makes its impression. Leaving the Volcano
good governor of the Amazon must not have seen tons of waste toxic and harmful to the few fields that alternate Punzo that the empire has so far left to the peasants. Sacchi blacks, sometimes isolated from the environmental agency's red and white stripes.
out of the car in the area of \u200b\u200bthe Royal Lagni means covering your mouth to avoid breathing the fumes that surround the area.
And if this is a good Vulcan, who knows what lies in its cavity, deep in the land, once the garden of Campania Felix.
