Fratelli Lavarello / Società di
Navigazione a Vapore Fratelli Lavarello
Formed in 1887 by Pietro and Enrico Lavarello, sons of
the late G. B. Lavarello to run passenger services from Genoa to South
American ports. By 1891 the company was in financial difficulties and
was put into liquidation.
The surviving ships were taken over by La
Veloce.
