A Journey
built on Trust
Founded in 1989, Balsamo has grown from a local mobility service into an international mobility management partner. Over the years, the company has developed a global network of trusted partners while maintaining the same attention to people, relationships and service quality that defined its origins.
The foundation
Milan was the keeper of the first car rental and witnessed Balsamo’s first steps. That small company from the province of Bergamo was ready to hit the big city. With a bunch of cars and the first clients, Balsamo moved its first steps in the music industry.
A moment of responsibility
After his father's early passing, Pietro, a 17-year-old visionary, took the lead of the company with the trust of his clients. Balsamo adopted a new approach to distinguish its chauffeured services, aiming to enhance quality, listen to clients, and expand assistance. This mindset drove Balsamo to follow clients wherever they wished. It’s not about where, but who with…
Big music Events
2005 is a year of great concerts. From the first Italian tours to the memorable Madonna’s "The Confessions Tour". Impossible to forget. Big music events marked these years and started a new phase: the internationalization of the company.
Coming back to hometown
The first digitalization process was about to start, with the aim of improving every service and creating a workflow that is fast, flawless and smooth. Balsamo moved its headquarter to its hometown, in the province of Bergamo: going back to the roots is a way to see things from a different perspective.
A worldwide ecosystem
Over the years, Balsamo has built a global network of trusted partners and certified drivers. During EXPO Milano 2015, we served as exclusive partners for several pavilions and events, including the MTV EMAs. Collaborations with major music artists on world tours strengthened our expertise in international business travel. Today, Balsamo leverages advanced software to optimize service management and CRM processes.
Fashion Weeks & Rome Expansion
The Team grows and Balsamo accompany on the runway, the Milan, London, Paris and NY fashion weeks, fixed appointments and an established presence. In 2019, Balsamo opens a new division for the city of Rome.
New York Growth Journey
Balsamo expands its presence in the United States, starting in 2020 with a strategic collaboration in New York with Mobility Angel Corporation (MAC). In 2025, the partnership evolves into a major milestone with the acquisition of 100% of MAC, strengthening Balsamo’s position in the North and South American markets and consolidating its international network of luxury mobility services.
Balsamo in Paris
Balsamo strengthens its presence in France with the acquisition of Parimob, a Paris-based luxury mobility company already part of the Balsamo Network. The operation reinforces the group’s position in the French and BeNeLux markets and marks another step in its international expansion.
Today & Tomorrow
Today, Balsamo continues its journey of growth and international expansion. By combining the strength of its people with continuous technological innovation, the company keeps evolving to deliver seamless, high-end mobility solutions while shaping the future of premium transportation.
