Registration in a corporate social responsibility approach
The company is part of a CSR approach, an approach based on three aspects: social, economic and environmental. Social, by creating jobs as well as training several people in professional river qualifications each year. Economic and environmental by highlighting and working with local actors and producers, and by restoring the Loire to its dimension as a river navigated by a commercial fleet.
The company also has many labels, witnesses of its quality of welcome within the local tourism:
Since 2017, the company has been authorized to use the World Heritage emblem of theUnesco.
The Saint-Nicolas navigation company from Saint-Nicolas contributes to the implementation of the World Heritage Convention by promoting, among the public, the appropriation of the values of the Loire Valley listed as a World Heritage site as a cultural landscape.
