Abstract: In this study we describe the smuggling activities involving drugs and cigarettes within the Italian multimodal logistic system in the period between 2004 and 2014. Data concerning the smuggling flows intercepted by Italian authorities are used to carry out detailed studies about the evolution of the trafficking of illicit substances.
