In 2024, China and France commemorate six decades of diplomatic relations, marking a milestone in their longstanding economic and trade cooperation. Over the past 60 years, both nations have witnessed significant growth in bilateral trade, driven by China's rapid economic development and its increasing openness to global markets.
French companies have established a strong foothold in the Chinese market, becoming pivotal players in the deepening relationship between the two countries. These businesses have thrived by integrating into China's dynamic business landscape, benefiting from the nation's expansive market opportunities and robust bilateral economic growth.
Prominent French firms operating in China, such as Accor Greater China, BNP Paribas (China) Ltd., and AXA Tianping P&C Insurance Co., Ltd., have leveraged their local presence to navigate the evolving market dynamics, fostering mutually beneficial partnerships and driving economic progress.
As China and France look toward the future, the foundation laid over the past six decades sets the stage for continued collaboration and innovation, further strengthening their economic ties and contributing to global economic stability.
