Firmafrance.com, an online directory of French exporters and products, has just been revamped by UBIFRANCE, the French agency for international business development, in order to provide users with increased efficiency, better visibility and improved security.

This unique B2B internet portal in English simplifies contacts between French exporters and professionals worldwide who are seeking reliable suppliers and partners, and offers free access to a selection of 15,000 French exporters and 48,000 products across all sectors.

Professionals looking for new partnerships for technology transfers or distribution contracts can use Firmafrance.com to get in touch with export sales managers or experienced suppliers, selected according to their individual requirements. Companies provide visitors to the site with export catalogues, technical descriptions of their products, photos, references, targeted markets, list of countries where they are present, partnership proposals and lists of trade fairs they will attend.

The number of selected companies and products available, as well as the number of business offers and business requests, can be seen directly, sector by sector, in the Business Area section. A Focus On section presents a new company or product every day. Visitors have easier access to companies and products through the 12 Sector Communities. What is more, the site’s efficient search engine makes it easier to search for a company or a product by technical specifications.

Each Sector Community has its own Business Opportunity section where it is possible to post a business offer or request online. Direct business contacts are made easier and more secure in this new version of Firmafrance.com thanks to an integrated messenger system as well as an alert system that sends a message to registered users as soon as a contact is made in the Business Opportunity section.

Visitors can also benefit from valued-added content, including the latest business news, innovations and technology updates as well as company press releases. Special reports address industry-specific issues and feature French regional market surveys. Finally, several pages are dedicated to French industry organisations, with presentations of their activities and directories of their members, who each display their products on the portal.
