This sector is of strategic importance to the French economy, with France, alongside the United States, home to one of the world’s largest aerospace industries. In 2023, the sector generated revenues of €70.2 billion, making it the main contributor to the French trade balance with €31.6 billion. It brings together more than 1,000 businesses and 210,000 employees.
With 83% of its consolidated revenues generated through exports, the international strategy of businesses in this sector is crucial for its survival and maintaining its leading status. The partners in the sector have decided to join forces under the banner entitled the “Team France Aerospace” sector to support businesses internationally in a more structured and effective manner.
This initiative, led by Business France, aims to bring together organizations representing businesses in a sector around a common aim: to define an export strategy and promote the French offer internationally. Strengthened dialogue with the sectors should lead to the improvement of the readability and consistency of support systems, which will benefit exporting businesses and regions, and ensure their full mobilization.
