Urban Mobility Solutions in Bordeaux
Bordeaux manages a unique dual logistics identity: premium wine export supply chain (700 million bottles/year through the Port of Bordeaux and Mérignac airport) and a rapidly expanding metropolitan delivery market growing at 2.1% annually as new residential districts develop along the Bordeaux Métropole tramway extensions.
The city's ZFE-m (79 km²) covers the central Bordeaux municipality with Crit'Air 3 ban active since 2023. The Chartrons wine négociant district (UNESCO heritage zone) restricts heavy vehicles during business hours, and Bordeaux's festival calendar — Jazz in Marciac, the Bordeaux Wine Festival (500,000 visitors) — creates recurring logistics disruption windows that manual dispatch cannot proactively plan around.
