Palenzona-Sangalli war in Confcommercio, what will happen
What do Palenzona's resignation from the vice-presidency of Confcommercio chaired by Sangalli conceal? Facts, rumors and 3 scenarios
A step back – resigning as vice president – to then do it forward when the president of Confcommercio gives up or is torpedoed.
A step to the side to focus only on Conftrasporto, the federation of Confcommercio of which he is honorary president.
An intermediate step to evaluate whether to give up the confederation altogether to focus on other transport and logistics associations (also thanks to the relationship established with Amazon ).
These are the scenarios linked to the resignation of Fabrizio Palezona, formerly at the top of Unicredit and Autostrade / Aiscat, as vice president of Confcommercio.
A gesture that makes the troubles of the president of Confcommercio, Carlo Sangalli, even more blatant, who continues to give interviews to major newspapers – for decades available and ready to collect every whisper of Sangalli – such as today's Corriere della Sera in which – poffarbacco – there is not even a mention of the Palenzona case .
“Confcommercio has been in trouble for some time. The leaders of the four most important federations are outside the highest confederal body (Federalberghi, Federmoda and now Conftrasporto). FIPE remains certainly for conviction but also for the loyalty that binds its President, Lino Stoppani, to Carlo Sangalli himself – wrote the analyst Mauro Sassi, journalist and connoisseur of the services and large-scale distribution sector – The President is now a bit 'Ibraimovich, a bit of Handanovic for those who follow football with passion. Those around the Swede are assailed by the doubt whether or not it is convenient to renew the contract made to date also to keep a restless locker room at bay and eager to turn the page or accompany him, as in the case of the Slovenian, to a golden pension before mistakes in the dark field a glorious past ”.
If Palenzona has resigned from the position of vice president of Confcommercio, the president Carlo Sangalli still proceeds in the third term. It is quite evident that the two have a different vision on the future of Confcommercio with the dispute that is also played out on the transport sector as logistics has become a driving force in the association and Palenzona is its emblem: so much so that it has favored membership of the Amazon giant to the confederation through Conftrasporto .
"It also remains to understand which side is the number one of Conftrasporto, Paolo Uggè, the third pillar of the association's kingdom – wrote a newspaper in Alessandria, the land of Palenzona – According to some careful observers, the break with Palenzona could be the beginning of a war, perhaps silent, to the leadership of Sangalli and Uggè could be the tip of the balance. It is that now the man with a thousand armchairs, as Palenzona was called, has another one less, after that of Aiscat, lost a few months ago. After the resignation of the past few days, Palenzona remains Honorary President of Conftrasporto, President of Prelios SpA and of FAI Service, a cooperative company. But many are convinced that the Good Giant of Pozzolo is returning to his first love, Logistics ”.
The newspaper points to the Slala -System logistic system of the North West of Italy as Palenzona's next field of action. We will see.
