CMA Île-de-France (CMA IDF)
The Regional Chamber of Trade and Craft of the Paris area
represents, defends, and promotes the general interests of
238,000 craft businesses and small enterprises in the Greater
Paris region. These businesses account for around 300,000
craftsmen, generating an estimated yearly turnover of €50
billion, with a particular focus on the city of Paris, where
56,000 craft businesses are located.
Leveraging its 24 sites across Île-de-France, CMA IDF has a
strong territorial presence and offers a wide range of services
to support entrepreneurs in business creation, takeovers,
sustainable development, and the ecological and digital
transition of companies.
CMA IDF is also a major player in professional and vocational
training in Île-de-France, providing more than 80 training and
apprenticeship courses and educating over 6,000 young
people, future employees, and entrepreneurs each year.
Within CMA IDF, the recently established Fine Crafts Unit
focuses specifically on heritage and contemporary
craftsmanship. Its objectives are to promote the culture and
transmission of fine crafts and traditional techniques, support
innovation and sustainable practices within the crafts sector,
facilitate networking, partnerships, and B2B initiatives for SMEs
and artisan enterprises, and organize training, events, and
workshops to strengthen skills, encourage creativity, and foster
circular economy practices in crafts.
