The network of Chambers of Trades and Crafts (CMA) will be present at MIF Expo 2026 in Paris, from November 12 to 15, with its Craftsmanship Village, bringing together over 200 artisans.

The Craftsmanship Village, an initiative by the network of Chambers of Trades and Crafts (CMA), will once again be a central feature of the Made in France (MIF Expo) trade show in Paris in 2026. This dedicated space will highlight the expertise of artisans from all regions of mainland France and overseas territories, with the participation of over 200 professionals.
Visitors will have the opportunity to discover a wide range of products combining traditional know-how, quality, creativity, and innovation. Workshops and interactive demonstrations will take place throughout the event, offering the public direct immersion into the artisans' techniques and skills. This exhibition will be a prime occasion to meet those who actively contribute to the French economy and learn about their inspiring stories.
Joël Fourny, president of CMA France, emphasized the event's significance: 'The Craftsmanship Village is, above all, a fantastic showcase for artisans and their skills. They demonstrate daily that manufacturing in France is possible, that tradition and innovation can be combined, and that our regions are full of talent.'
In the current economic climate, it is particularly crucial to promote those who manufacture in France. Each creation represents a business, skills, jobs, and transmitted know-how. Made in France embodies this economic reality, which creates, passes on, and sustains our regions.
Join us from November 12 to 15 at the Craftsmanship Village, located at MIF Expo in Paris, Porte de Versailles – Hall 7.2, to meet these passionate men and women.
