Champagne Mobilités

What Champagne Mobilités does

Champagne Mobilités is a French regional passenger transport operator headquartered in Reims, in the Marne department. The company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of RATP Dev, the international operating arm of Groupe RATP, and is registered as a SAS (Société par Actions Simplifiée) with share capital of approximately €365,000–€365,900. Its core service lines are (i) contracted school transport for the Grand Reims metropolitan authority and for the Région Grand Est under the Fluo 51 network (Dormans sector), (ii) individual leisure excursions and multi-day stays departing from Reims (Parking Stade René Tys) to destinations across France and internationally, (iii) group coach charters for associations, schools, seniors, and businesses with a 20-participant minimum, and (iv) airport shuttle transfers — the latter of which is being discontinued effective May 1, 2026. Headcount is 51–100 and customer mix spans public-sector authority contracts, B2B group bookings, and direct-to-consumer leisure travelers.

Underlying technology is conventional web infrastructure: a content-driven website (champagne-mobilites.fr) that captures quote requests, lost-item reports, and general inquiries; a Shopify-powered online boutique launched in March 2025 for self-service booking and payment of individual trips; Google Analytics for audience measurement; and offline quality controls including monthly independent audits of punctuality, vehicle cleanliness, passenger information display, and customer welcome on Grand Est school lines. The company holds ISO 39001 road safety management certification (the first RATP Dev subsidiary in France to do so, in February 2023) and is committed to the Charte Objectif CO2 charter through 2028.

Revenue mechanics are a blend of recurring and transactional streams: subscription-style multi-year school transport contracts with public authorities, one-time per-trip bookings for individual excursions (priced per adult/child, e.g., €73 adult for Guedelon, €135 adult for Paris Notre-Dame), bespoke quote-based group charter pricing (with a 30% deposit on confirmation), and — until May 2026 — unit-priced airport shuttle services (€109–€385 per shuttle for up to 7 passengers, with night/Sunday/holiday surcharges of up to 30%). Go-to-market is hybrid: direct-to-consumer via the website, brochure, and Shopify boutique; sales-led via phone inside-sales (03.26.50.59.44 for groups) and a structured quote form for B2B; and direct contracting with public authorities through public procurement for school transport.
