Where we deliver in La Rochelle
- Espace Encan
- A former fish market on quai Louis Prunier, facing the Bassin des Chalutiers near the station: there is no dedicated parking, so ask the organiser to confirm the hall, the service entrance and the unloading slot.
- Centre de Congrès Georges-Pernoud
- On avenue du Lazaret at the Minimes marina: ask the organiser for a time slot and the service entrance, and plan ahead in September, when the Grand Pavois takes over the port.
- Stade Marcel-Deflandre
- Home of Stade Rochelais, with VIP and event packages for companies: deliveries via the service entrance, security checks on match days, and the slot arranged with the club or the organiser.
We also deliver to offices and unusual venues across the city, in particular Port de La Pallice, Aytré, Périgny, Les Minimes.
The local constraint that changes the plan
The historic centre is pedestrian at all times: retractable bollards, raised day and night, close off the old town's streets, and only vehicles with a badge issued by the municipal police may enter. For a delivery there, give us the exact address and the nearest unloading point on the edge of the pedestrian zone.
Who orders in La Rochelle
Orders come from boatbuilding and marine businesses, the rail industry, port and logistics operations, and the university and its laboratories. The hospital and business-tourism teams add to the demand.

How a delivery outside Île-de-France works
Everything is composed in Île-de-France and carried in a refrigerated vehicle, with an unbroken cold chain from loading to hand-over. The logistics line covers the real round trip, 940 km, and appears as its own line on the quote.
For a large event, allow 72 hours between the order and the delivery; for a smaller order, 5 days. Payment is received before the service, as everywhere else: nothing is produced before the funds are in.
