Overview
Made in France is a merchandise mark indicating that a product is planned, manufactured and packed in France.
Arnaud Montebourg is the industry minister and architect of a "Made in France" campaign.
In the European Union, a state which would make « made in France » or « made in Germany » labelling mandatory would infringe EU law which aim free competition, according to the Court of Justice of the European Union,.
Made in France
Although labelling is not mandatory, there are many certifications which attest to the fabrication of a product on French soil: Made in France; Origine France Garantie; The Living Heritage Company Label; Terre Textile label; Designations of Origins and the Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) label.
The traditional ‘Made in France’ label is an incontestable draw for customers – the Pro France Ifop survey (September 2018) reported that two thirds of French people ‘often’ or ‘systematically’ take the product’s origin into account when they buy a product or service, and that three quarters of French people would be prepared to pay more for a product labelled as ‘Made in France’.
