A new turning point brought by the 2nd generation of Gonzalez transporters
The second generation of entrepreneurs, led by brothers Benjamin, Maxime and Victor Gonzalez, took over the management of the company from their parents. The company is investing in the renovation of its offices and the expansion of its historical headquarters in Vayres, adding 10 new dock doors and 650 additional square meters. At the same time, a new strategic location was initiated with the construction of a second logistics warehouse in Cestas, south of Bordeaux.
The company is then the only carrier to offer optimal coverage of the Gironde, from north to south. Thus, it naturally bypasses the problem of congestion in the Bordeaux conurbation, optimizes distribution everywhere around Bordeaux in the Gironde and facilitates shipments to other destinations, from the Landes to the Basque country, even reaching as far as the south of Europe.

The creation of a new transport subsidiary in the Midi-Pyrénées region

The creation of LGT Île-de-France allows the company to be present in a strategic area on a national scale, around Paris. The agency, based in Rungis (94), offers a concrete response to all customers with goods transport needs between the South-West and the Ile-de-France.
