611 loads originating in Girona province, moving to 22 countries — and the lowest average transit in the country alongside Barcelona: 6.2 days.
Average transit is a historical door-to-door mean, waiting time included. It is not a committed delivery lead time. How we measure transit times, zone by zone
Girona exports from a very recognisable base: the pork meat industry of Osona and the Empordà, cork from the Baix Empordà, plastics and metal converting. High-rotation product with frequent shipments, averaging 4.1 linear metres.
Geography helps. Sitting next to La Jonquera means entering France with no prior drag, and the measured transit shows it: 6.2 days, level with Barcelona despite moving a tenth of the volume.
Romania is the top international destination with 144 loads — a high figure for the province's size and well above France, despite France being next door. Proximity explains the transit; it does not explain the destination.
Does being next to the border make a difference?
In transit, yes: 6.2 days on average, the same level as Barcelona while moving a fraction of the volume. Entering France with no prior drag removes a long day compared with the Levante.
Do you move meat products under controlled temperature?
Meat is part of what leaves this province. Controlled temperature is arranged per shipment and is worth specifying when you ask for a price, because it determines the equipment and not every corridor handles it the same way.
