French Desk

Central and Eastern Europe offers French businesses a compelling proposition: fast-growing markets, strategic access to wider Europe, and real room for expansion. Capturing that potential requires advisors who combine deep regional experience with an instinctive understanding of how French enterprises operate.

Our French Desk delivers exactly that. For more than a decade, we have supported French-speaking clients – from multinational retail groups to industrial manufacturers – through market entries, acquisitions, and complex operational mandates across CEE. We understand the local legal frameworks, the business environment, and the practical mechanics of operating in the region. Just as critically, we understand French business culture: the emphasis on strategic depth, structural soundness, and results that withstand examination.

We advise on corporate structuring and M&A, IP protection and data compliance, employment matters, and the mobility frameworks that enable French executives to establish and expand their presence across CEE. Every mandate is led by French-speaking advisors who know the region not as theory, but as lived practice.

Whether you are evaluating your first CEE market or managing mature cross-border operations, we provide the responsiveness, insight, and commercial judgment French companies expect from their most trusted advisors.
