SMALL BUSINESSES Companies Startup/innovation Self-employed Associations

Small companies, startups, SMEs, ETIs, large corporations and associations committed to promoting Made in France have until March 17, 2024 to submit their applications for this fourth edition of the Grande Exposition du Fabriqué en France scheduled for the end of June.

Celebrating the excellence of French know-how

The Grande Exposition du Fabriqué en France will take place in June 2024. Initiated by the President of the Republic in January 2020, it honors companies, craftsmen, producers and industrialists committed to French manufacturing.

During this event, companies of all sizes and in all sectors showcase the wealth of French know-how from French departments and territories and overseas. Along the way, visitors will be able to see demonstrations of the trades, models of innovative products supported by France 2030, and the latest creations from national manufacturers. A conference area has also been created to encourage exchanges with professionals.

 

Pre-selections at regional level

To take part in the "Grande Exposition du Fabriqué en France", companies must be pre-selected at regional level by regional prefects and high commissioners, on the advice of regional and departmental councils, and local consular and economic contacts. A second opinion is given by a selection committee made up of qualified personalities to define the products to be presented at the event.

The criteria used to assess applications are numerous:

  • proportion of the product's added value generated in France,
  • labels held,
  • the company's commitment to environmental and social responsibility,
  • participation in a France Relance or France 2030-type scheme,
  • commitment to relocating business to France...

The most important criterion is the company's commitment to French know-how and manufacturing.

How do I apply?

Companies, craftsmen, producers, industrialists and associations fully committed to French manufacturing can submit their applications until March 17, 2024, whatever their size or sector of economic activity. To do so, simply visit démarches-simplifiees.fr and complete the form. Each form is valid for the application of a single product. To submit several products, you need to fill in several forms.

Professionals who have already had one of their products awarded a prize in a previous edition may submit applications for other products, or for the same product if its design, manufacture or use have since been improved. When submitting their application, candidates must provide a photo of the candidate product on a white background, as well as sales documentation or a product data sheet (optional). The average entry time is 38 minutes, and may vary according to the options chosen.
