France Business Consultants
France business consultants help leaders in Paris and across the regions turn strategy into delivery. We connect choices, budgets, and adoption for management consulting, digital consulting, and change programs.
What Is Business Consulting in France?
We advise on strategy, operating model, technology, and adoption so decisions convert to outcomes. We bring one program from board to frontline with clear evidence of impact.
Why It Matters and How It Works
France is a large, diversified economy with a Paris hub and strong logistics. Policy, tax, VAT, and the e-invoicing roadmap shape delivery. We wire the what (growth moves, cost resets, digital) with the how (governance, PMO, controls, change) so programs land on time and on budget.
- Corporate income tax: 25% standard rate with a reduced band for small profits.
- VAT: 20% standard rate with 10%, 5.5%, and 2.1% reduced/super-reduced rates.
- Paris Region scale: Île-de-France generates about 30% of national GDP.
- Logistics: France ranks 13th on the World Bank LPI (2023) with an overall score near 3.9–4.0.
- E-invoicing: all businesses must be able to receive e-invoices from September 2026; rollout is phased, using formats including Factur-X.
