Zona Franca (Catalan pronunciation: [ˈzonə ˈfɾaŋkə], also called in Catalan: Polígon Industrial de la Zona Franca) is a logistics and industrial area located in the Sants-Montjuïc district of Barcelona, Catalonia (Spain). It is near the C-31 road and la Marina de Sants (Barcelona), el Prat de Llobregat and l'Hospitalet de Llobregat. It is in a very strategic position to be between Barcelona Free Port and Barcelona Airport.
The upcoming Barcelona Metro line L9, currently under development, will serve Zona Franca and connect it with central Barcelona and the rest of the metropolitan area.
