The Franco-Croatian Chamber of Commerce and Industry was founded in 2012 as a Franco-Cro atian Business Club.
The Chamber is a non-profit nongov ernmental organization, which in its founding stage received support from around 40 companies, branches and representative
offices of French companies, investors, ex porters and importers, which have grown in number to the present 55.
The Chamber’s purpose is to facilitate exchange of contacts and ideas with policy makers, as well as synergies and joint ven tures, and to contribute to better mutual understanding of economic issues inherent to France and Croatia, the European Union and in relation to third country markets.
The member companies today vary from very small entrepreneurs to the biggest multinationals, and we can proudly say that each and every member contrib utes on a voluntary basis to the Chamber’s operations with equal amount of energy
and enthusiasm, just like in the beginning.
They have recognized the Chamber’s efforts to facilitate business contacts and opportunities by organizing targeted busi ness meetings on B2B, networking events, the thematic conferences, business forums and working reunions with the represent atives of central and local administration and public institutions. Besides the busi ness part, the Chamber cherishes the friendship between all the members by encouraging a number of informal events during the year, of which the biggest one is the celebration of the young French wine, Beaujolais Nouveau, which attracts a huge crowd every year.
Our member companies enjoy special privileges in terms of financial, legal and language services, they have access to various databases, and they can easily get in contact with some of the largest global companies in building sector, infrastruc ture, financial services, IT, transport, consulting, etc. They are given opportunities to participate in thematic lectures and seminars, networking events and web and social networks’ promotion, not to mention that the affiliation to a business
association of a renowned and familiar rep utation makes contacts much easier.
The Franco-Croatian Chamber of Com merce and Industry is open to all companies which need business support in both French and Croatian markets.
We have maintained the recognizable French touch because all of our member companies are, in some way, connected to France, whether through the ownership structure, or simply by working with the French or in the French market.
