Turnover of the Société Nationale des Chemins de fer Français (SNCF) 2008-2023
The annual revenue generated by the Société des Chemins de fer Français (SNCF) varied substantially over the past decade. After reaching its highest turnover in 2019, amounting to more than 35 billion euros, the SNCF underwent a drastic decrease in 2020, achieving annual revenue of fewer than 30 billion euros. This change was a direct consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting travel restrictions to stop the spread of the virus. Revenue began climbing again in 2021 and outpaced pre-pandemic revenue by 2022 and grew further to nearly 41.8 billion euros in 2023.
