LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT
Dear friends,
Welcome to the site of the Franco-Lebanese Chamber of Commerce.
The international pandemic crisis of COVID-19 that the world is going through today, has resulted not only in a health, medical and human crisis but also and above all in a major economic crisis that affects the various production and service sectors in the world. A new lifestyle is taking hold of us where the rules of social distancing and remote working prevail.
Lebanon, has been facing multiple challenges since October 17, 2019 on different levels: political, economic and financial, humanitarian, social, as well as educational … To this is added the installed epidemic which makes the situation even heavier and more burdensome.
Faced with these challenges, the CCFL found it impossible to carry out some of its activities and, already foresaw in addition to its initial mission, a new humanitarian mission that would meet the needs of the circumstances. This mission quickly led to two major actions: first, the establishment of a system to help Lebanese students in need in France. With the Lebanese Embassy in France, a team of several Franco-Lebanese associations volunteered to help more than 500 students.
Second, the CCFL Board of Directors approved the launch in France of the France-Lebanon Endowment Fund, which has already been operating since the beginning of September 2020 to help several major causes, many of which are the result of the explosion in the port of Beirut which took place on August 4, 2020.
I salute the fight of all companies at the heart of this crisis, especially Lebanese companies. The CCFL counts on your permanent support to be able to persevere in its mission.
Do not hesitate to join our community to defend the historic friendship between France and Lebanon as well as the Franco-Lebanese cultural and economic exchanges.
I wish you a good health.
Gaby Tamer
President

70 years of commitment in promoting French-Lebanese economic relations.
The Franco-Lebanese Chamber of Commerce, created in 1950 is one of the oldest bilateral Chambers of Commerce in France.
