A delegation of French entrepreneurs from over 20 different companies have been welcomed to Krasnodar. The delegates' aims were to establish contacts in the areas of construction, architecture and housing/social services.

The delegates especially expressed interest at a project to spruce up the centre of Krasnodar. Since its initiation in 2006 $280m has been injected into the project, whilst $400-520m is still most likely to be on its way. Soon the reconstruction of the city center will enter an even more active phase.
