CCAFI — Cercle des Clubs d'Affaires Francophones à l'International

Circle of Francophone Business Clubs International

Francophone entrepreneurs are everywhere.
Their network has yet to be built.

CCAFI unites independent Francophone business clubs and connects entrepreneurs on the ground across countries: SMEs, artisans, traders and liberal professions.

A network under construction — first target cities
90 %of the economic fabric is made up of SMEs

The observation

Large companies and international groups already have powerful, well-organized networks. Yet SMEs, artisans and independent entrepreneurs form the vast majority of the economic fabric and a major share of employment.

These entrepreneurs on the ground remain less visible, less connected to each other, often far from major international economic networks. Millions of them drive their territories every day without structured networks, international visibility or cross-border connections.

CCAFI creates that link.

Our mission

Five commitments, one logic: connect.

  • ConnectLink Francophone business clubs from one country to another.
  • ExchangeFoster concrete economic exchanges and opportunities.
  • ShowcaseGive visibility to Francophone entrepreneurs on the ground.
  • InstitutionsBuild or strengthen ties with embassies, institutions and economic actors.
  • BuildCreate a global Francophone economic network that is human, agile and concrete.
