What Ca Du Pays Nord Martinique does

CAP Nord Martinique (Communauté d'Agglomération du Pays Nord Martinique) is a French public intercommunal cooperation body (Établissement Public de Coopération Intercommunale, EPCI) created in 2015 to coordinate shared public services across 18 communes in northern Martinique, serving a population of roughly 95,643 residents. Its mandated competencies include household waste collection and treatment, water and sanitation, territorial planning, social housing allocation, economic development, and digital inclusion. Day-to-day service delivery is split between a small direct EPCI staff (listed as 1–10 administrative employees) and delegated operators, most notably SAUR Martinique which began a 10-year water and sanitation delegation on January 1, 2025 across most of the territory (with La Trinité and Robert onboarding in April 2027).

Core 'products' are public services rather than commercial offerings: integrated waste management (Tri Bô Kay monthly multiflux collection, weekly door-to-door selective sorting, voluntary drop-off points), a sanitation tariff set at €3.85/m³ (raised 36% from €2.83/m³ in 2024 to fund infrastructure), the NORMA'Bus itinerant mobile digital service unit, the Nordcréatis three-site business incubator, and infrastructure projects including the Parc Caribéen de la Vie Amérindienne and the Domaine Martiniquais d'Expérimentation (DoME) at Grande Savane. Underlying technology is conventional public-sector digital infrastructure — online service portals, electronic billing (becoming mandatory for suppliers from September 2026), remote meter reading (télérélève), and the Orange-equipped NORMA'Bus connectivity — with no proprietary AI, no API surface, and no SDK offerings.

The revenue model is purely fiscal and statutory: the Taxe d'Enlèvement des Ordures Ménagères (TEOM) property tax (set at 19% for 2025, covering ~75% of the €25M annual waste budget); water and sanitation fees billed semiannually to residents; the Taxe de Séjour tourist accommodation levy (€0.20–€3/day, with a 37% average increase effective January 1, 2026); operational subsidies from the French State and the Collectivité Territoriale de Martinique; and European Regional Development Fund (FEDER) co-financing that covers 40–65% of major infrastructure depending on project. TEOM alone generated €17.3M in 2024, leaving a €7.7M deficit covered by the general budget. Total operating budget is implied at roughly €60–€65M (waste at €25M ≈ 40%). Pricing is set by deliberation of the community council and is not commercially negotiable. Distribution reaches citizens through four physical sites (Le Marigot HQ plus Le Robert, Le Lorrain, Le Carbet), the NORMA'Bus mobile unit, SAUR-operated water customer facilities, the online portal, and live-streamed public council meetings. The territory's Montagne Pelée and Pitons du Nord hold UNESCO World Heritage status, anchoring a tourism development opportunity.

Direct peers

• SAUR: French water and sanitation operator currently delegated by CAP Nord under a 10-year contract. Comparable as a water/sanitation service provider executing the same delegated-operator role across France; differs in scale, private ownership, and absence of municipal-governance overlay.
• Collectivité Territoriale de Martinique (CTM): Regional Martinique authority that co-finances CAP Nord's major infrastructure (10–22% of project cost). Comparable as a public authority delivering territorial-development and environmental programs in the same jurisdiction, with overlapping mandate on economic development, culture, and EU-fund deployment.
• Espace Sud Martinique: The other principal intercommunal cooperation structure (EPCI) in Martinique, serving the southern communes of the island. Directly comparable to CAP Nord in legal form (communauté d'agglomération), mandate (waste, water, territorial development), and operating geography, differing only in commune base and population.

Broad incumbents

• Veolia: Global leader in water and waste management services, including delegated municipal contracts analogous to CAP Nord's SAUR arrangement. Comparable as a broad incumbent across CAP Nord's core service lines (water, sanitation, waste) but operates at vastly larger scale and as a private-sector participant rather than a public authority.
• Suez: Major French and global water/waste services group with significant municipal-delegation exposure. Comparable as a broad incumbent operating in the same waste-management and water-treatment value chain as CAP Nord's delegated contracts, but at global scale.
• Séché Environnement: French-listed specialist in waste treatment, hazardous-waste management, and remediation. Comparable in the waste-management and circular-economy dimensions of CAP Nord's mandate (TEOM-funded household waste, RE_FASHION textile partnership), differing by being a private operator with industrial-scale facilities.

Regional players

• Nantes Métropole: French intercommunal authority with shared competences in waste management, water/sanitation delegation, digital inclusion, and EU co-financed territorial development. Comparable as a French EPCI peer but in mainland France, with a different demographic and economic base.
• Montpellier Méditerranée Métropole: French intercommunal authority with overlapping mandate on waste, water, economic development, and digital inclusion. Comparable as a French EPCI peer with similar statutory tools and delegated-operator models, but operating in mainland France at larger scale.
• Métropole Européenne de Lille: Large French intercommunal authority exercising the same statutory competences as CAP Nord (waste, water, urban planning, economic development, EU funding). Comparable as a French EPCI peer but in mainland France with materially different population scale and industrial base.
• Bordeaux Métropole: French intercommunal authority (métropole) with comparable competences in waste, water, economic development, and EU-funded territorial projects. Comparable as a structurally similar public EPCI but in a metropolitan French (rather than overseas) context, serving a vastly larger population.
