Is concorde commercial?

Well, to answer this, ask yourself two questions.

1. Was it built for millitary reasons?[/SIZE]
2. Was it built as a private aircraft?[/SIZE]

NO !

It was built for commercial reasons.

Whether or not it is commercially PROFITABLE or not is irrelevant - it's still a commercial aircraft.
