Navigazione Generale Italiana was founded in 1881 from the merger of Florio of Palermo and Rubattino of Genoa, becoming the main shipping company of the Kingdom of Italy.
It operated the Mediterranean and transoceanic routes (Americas, Asia, Africa) until its merger with other entities into Italia Trasporti Marittimi (Italia Line) in 1932.
