EFE Label
The French Companies Abroad (Entreprises Françaises à l’Étranger - EFE), was created in 2021, EFE International is an initiative of the French Foreign Trade Advisors and the network of French Chambers of Commerce and Industry abroad.
In Thailand, these companies thrive in various sectors such as culture, technology, aerospace, healthcare, and more. Some have contributed, directly or indirectly, to the expansion of French influence in the country.
EFE International aims to offer companies that promote French influence abroad the opportunity to obtain a label recognizing their efforts in this mission.
The label has the official name: “EFE Label – French Company Abroad contributing to the influence of France.” It is an initiative of the French Foreign Trade Advisors (CCE) and the network of French Chambers of Commerce and Industry Abroad (CCIFI).
Its goal is to identify, highlight, and support French companies abroad (E.F.E.) that represent the French brand and help, directly or indirectly, to promote France internationally.
The ambition of this initiative is to strengthen the links between French companies abroad, France, and French businesses, while bringing together a growing community of people committed to promoting French know-how and France’s image around the world.
