What is the CETA?
Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA)
is a bilateral free trade agreement between the European Union and Canada signed on October 30th, 2016 and ratified by France on July 23rd, 2019.
This historic trade deal has abolished almost all (nearly 99%) of import barriers
by setting new standards for trade in goods and services between the two areas.
Why is the CETA called a "next generation agreement"?
This means that the CETA is not limited to cutting down customs duties between the European Union and Canada but also aims to totally reduce non-tariff barriers to trade, in particular by opening up public procurement to applications from Canadian companies
.
Canadian companies can therefore bid on calls for competition from certain threshold amounts under the same conditions as European companies!
What are the benefits for Canadian businesses?
France has long been a privileged economic partner to Canada.
This historic partnership between the two countries has only grown stronger within the framework of the CETA, which presents a real competitive advantage for Canadian businesses.
France is the number one buying country in the European Union
and spends more than 65 billion euros per year (approximately 100 billion Canadian dollars) for the purchase of services, works and supplies.
French public procurements are today a real springboard for any company wishing to develop its activities abroad.
