Bolloré SE is a French diversified investment and industrial group with interests spanning communications, media, logistics, energy and specialized industrial technologies. The company’s activities and investments have evolved over time, with its portfolio including businesses involved in transportation and supply-chain management, battery and energy-storage solutions, and media and communications.
Founded in 1822, Bolloré began as a paper manufacturer before expanding internationally into transportation, logistics, energy and communications. Its former logistics division provided freight forwarding, port operations, warehousing and other supply-chain services across Europe, Africa, Asia and the Americas. Bolloré sold the logistics business to CMA CGM in 2022, completing the transaction in 2023.
Following the logistics sale, Bolloré has primarily operated as a holding and investment company, with significant exposure to communications and media through its interests in Vivendi and related businesses. The group has historically been controlled and led by the Bolloré family, with Vincent Bolloré playing a central role in its expansion and strategic direction. Its portfolio companies serve customers and audiences in numerous international markets.
