WE HAVE SEEN MUCH OF THE WORLD...
And know what makes a land of opportunity.
pont de l'iroise - brest Gateway to Europe looking East or a springboard to the Americas ? By the very nature of its situation, Finistère is a seaward-looking, trading region. This opening on the world is supported by a modern commnications network well adapted to the needs of business. Paris is an hour's flight away, the UK is two hours by plane and six by cross-channel ferry, while northern and southern Europe are easily accessible via Brittany's toll-free dual carriageway trunk roads.
Technology in the service of trade. We are a maritime country, we love all that links different peoples. We love the sea, boats and bridges.
Set up in Finistère or partner with local business? It's up to you.
Our seafaring tradition helps us understand other cultures and the different methods of navigating one's way in today's world. Our agricultural background has taught us how to take time, to be rigorous, to appreciate simplicity. Reason enough to encourage foreign businesses to set up in Finstère!

Reliability. This is perhaps our most treasured quality. Our businesses are trustworthy. They adhere to worldwide quality standards and environmental compliance procedures.

Successful. For us, this is self evident. Inventiveness, creativity and spirit of enterprise are in tune with our social and fiscal systems and together ensure a strong corporate contribution to collaborative ventures on the part of top quality, highly motivated teams dedicated to their work and to the region.
