UKFT urges companies from the UK fashion and textile industry to enter the first edition of the Franco-British Trade & Investment Awards 2021.

Run as a collaboration between the Commercial Section of the British Embassy in Paris and the Franco-British Chamber, our Awards will champion the bilateral values that underpin the Franco-British economic relationship, as well as give visibility and notoriety to companies which have excelled in the years 2020 and 2021.
