"Dear Visitor,
Thank you for your interest in the North Texas business community and the French-American Chamber of Commerce, Dallas-Fort Worth! The Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex is the fourth largest metropolitan area in the United States and has one of the highest concentrations of corporate headquarters in the nation, with industries ranging from aerospace and defense to banking, biotech and energy. When you combine our dynamic business community with transportation infrastructure like the Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport, the third busiest airport in the world in terms of daily flights, it is easy to see why the North Texas economy remains strong even during challenging times. At the French-American Chamber of Commerce, our mission is to work with all of the stakeholders in our community - governments, businesses, schools and universities, the vibrant non-profit sector, as well as our sister organizations in the international community - to ensure that North Texas remains one of the most inviting business and cultural environments in the world, especially for the many French companies already based in the region or considering a move. Over the past 30 years, the Chamber has served its members and promoted their interests both in the region and abroad, and we look forward to working with you and your company to help you compete not only on a local, regional, or even national scale, but globally. It is an exciting time in North Texas, it is an exciting time at the Chamber - please come and join us as we make the Metroplex an even better place to live and build your business!
