It doesn't specify what type of business in Italy in the spreadsheet, but two more interesting facts from the spreadsheet:
Cost to export a container (US$ per container):
UK(island nation disconnected from mainland Europe, has rail tunnel to France): 1030
Ireland(island nation disconnected from mainland Europe): 1109
Italy(connected to mainland Europe by rail and road): 1231
Bureaucracy in Italy adds more cost to exporting a container than a sea/air voyage does from the UK or Ireland.
If this kind of thing interests you, then perhaps check out Eurostat, the EU body for statistics, or the OECD website etc. I know that here in Ireland a body called the Central Statistics Office maintains that kind of data on Irish business, maybe there is an Italian body that does the same in Italy?
