The Agency and Its Mission
The Foreign Agricultural Service (FAS) of the American Embassy in Paris represents the interests of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) in France. These responsibilities are principally accomplished via reporting commodity and trade developments to the USDA, coordinating policy issues with host government officials and promoting the sale of U.S. food, agricultural, forestry and fishery products by providing trade services for both local importing companies and U.S. companies wishing to develop markets in this country.
