New business opportunities: the public procurement sector in France

With a total volume of 71 billion euros (105 billion Canadian dollars) in 2020, public procurement in France plays an important role in GDP (around 3%).


In addition, in the first quarter of 2021, French local authorities spent nearly 12 billion euros on purchases (18 billion Canadian dollars), i.e. 30% more than in the first quarter of 2020.


Regional public contracts are also experiencing a very significant increase, which has increased by 43%.


The Global Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA) opens public procurement markets of European Union Member States on an equal footing to Canadian companies.


Our lawyers who are experts in the French market are fully aware of the issues, expectations and objectives of Canadian companies in relation to CETA.


We have the expertise that Canadian companies are looking for.
