YEREVAN, February 4. /ARKA/. The second Armenian-French economic forum
is planned to be held in Yerevan in May 2015, French Ambassador
to Armenia Jean-Francois Charpentier said at a news conference on
Wednesday.
He said that the business forum will mainly be focused on fashion,
clothes, design and equipment for vine-growing and wine-making
businesses.
The ambassador said that trade turnover between Armenia and France
amounts to EURO 50 million now.
He pointed out the French-Armenian Commerce and Industry Chamber,
the Armenian-French Business Club in Armenia and the Development Fund
in Armenia saying that cooperation between the two countries should
be intensified.

Armenia will reach EURO 1 million later this year, and this is a
