Occitanie Made in France Expo Paris exhibitors, Digi Mart USA News (Paris, France): The Occitanie region intends to showcase its expertise at the Made in France trade fair (MIF Expo), held in Paris from November 12 to 15. Among the roughly 900 expected exhibitors, more than 100 companies from the region will take part, placing Occitanie among the three best-represented regions at this national event dedicated to products made in France.
For the occasion, an Occitanie Pavilion will bring together participating companies affiliated with the “Fabriqué en Occitanie” brand. The brand highlights innovative and eco-responsible production as well as traditional craftsmanship.
Supported by its agency AD’OCC, the Occitanie Regional Council is accompanying the delegation to strengthen the visibility of companies on the national market. The goal is to help them meet new customers, develop commercial outlets, and present their products to both the general public and professionals.
More than 100,000 visitors are expected over the four days of the fair, an additional opportunity for regional manufacturers and artisans to make their activities known.
Regional companies will represent a wide range of sectors, including fashion and accessories, fine crafts, decoration, beauty and well-being, gastronomy, and innovation. The region points to its strong position in the “Made in France” sector, particularly in the fashion industry, and notes that this diversity reflects the richness of regional production and the ability of artisans and manufacturers to meet evolving consumer expectations.
Days before the event, Regional Council President Carole Delga stressed the importance of supporting companies that produce in France amid economic uncertainty, pressure on purchasing power, and international competition. “Our artisans and manufacturers sustain our territories, create jobs and preserve valuable expertise,” she said, underlining the region’s commitment to supporting them and opening new markets.
Delga also said through the “Fabriqué en Occitanie” brand, the region aims to encourage consumption of regional products: “Buying regional supports our companies, preserves our jobs and strengthens our economic sovereignty.” Participation in MIF Expo is part of this effort to promote local production and increase its national visibility.
