  2. Bumblebee's answer is good. I'd also add "cars"- not so much here in the US, but in Europe, Latin America, Africa, etc. Renault, Peugeot, and Citroën cars can frequently be spotted in Britain, the Benelux countries (Belgium, Netherlands, and Luxembourg), Spain, Switzerland, etc.

  3. Perfume

    Wine

    Cheese

    Clothing

  4. France may be famous in the US for exporting wine, cheese and cosmetics but they are not necessarily France's major exports. France is a major wheat and cereal exporter for instance. Trading partners are primarily other European countries.

    Here is what France exports the most to the US:

        

    *  Machines, industrial products, electronics : 37,9%

        * Aeronautics and space : 24,5%

        * Pharmaceutical and chemistry : 15,1%

        * Car equipments : 4,1 %

        * Textile, food, etc... 8,9%

        * Wine, water, alcoholic beverages : 7%

        * Perfumes and beauty : 2,5%

    This article on French economy also gives a lot of info on the sectors that export well (agrifoods, cars, aerospace, chemicals...) http://www.ambafrance-us.org/spip.php?ar...
