France: Food Processing Ingredients Annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   FR2024-0001
The French food processing industry mobilizes more than 19,000 companies, of which nearly 98 percent are small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs). The sector generates $230 billion in annual revenue, and it indirectly contributes to nearly 2 million jobs in France. The French agri-food industry has significant political and economic influence. However, while market demand for processed food remains strong, the French industry continues to face challenges with the rising costs of “made in France.”
