WhO We are The French Chamber of Commerce in Great Britain (CCFGB) is part of a network of 11� French Chambers of Commerce and Industry Abroad (FCCIA), which is the largest French private network in the world with a combined membership base of more than �5,000 companies, 50% of which are non-French.
The CCFGB was the �rd French Chamber of Commerce to be set up abroad back in December 188�, after Montevideo in 188� and Barcelona in 188�.
Today the largest foreign Chamber in the Uk in terms of both turnover and range of services offered as well as one of the top French Chambers worldwide, we count more than 600 member companies - ranging from SMEs and entrepreneurs to blue chip companies. The diversity and quality of our members - 50% of which are non-French nationals - largely contributes to our success and to the reputation we have acquired over the last 1�8 years of existence.
Our policy is guided by a Board of 1� Directors responsible for all major decisions concerning the Chamber’s strategy. The Board is assisted by an Advisory Council of 57 councilors, helping to increase the visibility and the efficiency of the Chamber.
We are also a member of the Council of Foreign Chambers in the UK, chaired by our Managing Director.
What We dO Our main missions are to provide a platform for exchange and networking at the service of Franco-British firms in the UK, to promote our 600 members’ interests to key decision makers and to help develop economic and commercial relations between France and the UK. Our Business Consultancy and Implantation departments provide both British and French companies with a large range of bespoke professionnal services.
The 50 events we organise every year, with personalities from the British and French political and business worlds, offer great opportunities for our members to develop their business and expand their network of contacts.

Additionally, the Forums and the Clubs we have launched over the past � years, focusing on issues or sectors such as Human resources, Cross-Cultural Relations, Corporate social responsibility or the Luxury sector, offer our members dedicated platforms to exchange experiences at the highest level of management and to share best practices.
We take pride in the quality of our various publications, including our bimestrial magazine INFO - distributed to key decision makers- our members’ directory, our business guides or e-newsletters. They all provide a wealth of information, help promote the interests of the Franco-British business community and provide extra visibility to our member companies.

All our events are ideal platforms for our members to develop their visibility and grow their business.
Networking is assisted by the team of the French Chamber, who are on hand to help with specific introductions.
The French Chamber also organises throughout the year var ious exclusive events for its Patron members which are always unique and of the highest calibre.
In addition, we offer you the possibility to promote your company through sponsorship opportunities and entertain your clients through corporate hospitality.

OUr PUBLiCatiOns One of the Chamber’s mission is to promote business between French and British companies. Informing members on a wide range of Franco-British business topics is therefore highly important to us. The Chamber’s publications provide our members with all of the useful and informative details needed and allow them to increase their visibility through articles and advertising. They are complimentary to our members but some of them (business guides) are also sold to the general public.

OUr fOrUMs & CLUBsThe Chamber offers dynamic and business orientated Forums and Clubs that gather experts - drawn from the Chamber membership - around a particular issue or a sector of activity and that aim to give access to targeted information.
Headed by a Chairman, Forums meet regularly, inviting guest speakers, covering specific themes and communicating on their conclusions.
The French Chamber of Commerce in Great Britain hosts these meetings with an aim to offer members a free and unique opportunity to exchange experiences at the highest level of management and to share best practice with like-minded professionals.
They strive in the long term to help develop ‘think tanks’ and have an end goal of making direct representations of the French business community in both French and UK governments on business related issues.
OUr BUsiness sUPPOrt serViCesOur bilingual team of experienced professionals can assist you in every aspect of your development on the British market, from ‘testing the waters’ to getting a foot firmly in the door.
We offer tailored export advice and services such as Qualified Contact Lists, Market Studies and, drawing on our valued network of members and industry contacts, we can organise and shadow B�B meetings with selected prospects. Alternatively, we can put together trade visits for small groups of companies from the same industry sector .
If you are thinking of developing your presence in the UK, we can assist you whatever your plan is: from hosting your VIE (Volontaire International en Entreprise) in our offices, to providing you with accounting and payroll services, or introducing you to a selection of French-speaking experts (lawyers, estate agents, recruitment agencies, etc.) from our trusted network.
In a nutshell, we make sure that your company is equipped with all the tools and information it needs to successfully develop its business in the UK or set up a subsidiary, a franchise or even a flagship outlet across the channel.
