French-Venezuelan Chamber of Commerce (CCIAVF)

Founded in 1974, the French-Venezuelan Chamber of Commerce, Industry and Agriculture (CCIAVF) is a key binational institution that promotes economic, commercial, and cultural ties between France and Venezuela. With over 49 years of experience, it supports companies in both countries by facilitating trade, providing market insights, and organizing business and cultural events.

It is a member of the Union of Chambers of Commerce and Industry Abroad (CCI FRANCE INTERNATIONAL), which currently brings together 113 French Chambers in 83 countries, and is also a member of FEDEUROPA: Federation of European Chambers of Commerce in Venezuela (www.fedeuropa.org.ve).

The Chamber offers strategic services in foreign trade, logistics, and international business development, and acts as a liaison between companies and governmental institutions. It also leads notable initiatives such as:

• French Valley Caracas – connecting Venezuelan startups with the French Tech ecosystem.
• Venezuela Tierra de Cacao – a sustainable development project for cacao producers, co-funded by the European Union.
• Liaison Project – a cultural initiative celebrating the Chamber’s 50th anniversary, highlighting French fashion and art.

With a bilingual and multicultural team, the CCIAVF remains a vital platform for fostering innovation, investment, and collaboration between France and Venezuela.
