Since June 19, Sogestran Logistics and the ODB Grand Paris group, the leading independent drinks distributor in Paris and the Ile-de-France region, have been conducting a logistics experiment.
Sogestran chartered its ZULU 03 self-propelled unit from the port of Gennevilliers to the Parisian ports of Debilly and Austerlitz to restock OBD trucks delivering beverages to Parisian cafés, hotels and restaurants.
Set up twice a week, this operation verified the technical feasibility of deliveries to Parisian quaysides.
This test demonstrates the feasibility of using Parisian quays and shows that a mix of uses is possible: pedestrians, cyclists, passenger transport activities and logistics flows mix together.
The successful conclusion of this operation will shortly lead to the signature of a three-year agreement for the development of this river transport service in the ports. This is due to start on November 1, 2023.
