François FARNIER

I am 67 and became a pensioner in February 2009 but carry on working and training people. I wish to continue this challenging job a few more years.

I am French and spent 15 years abroad in Switzerland, Germany, England, Italy and Spain from 1965 until 1979 so I speak fluently 5 languages. I studied international business from 1965 to 1969 by correspondence with a school in Paris. I have been practising import and export since 1975 up to now in different sectors and positions in Spain and France.

I work for training centers or high business schools in France and am particularly good at the following matters : Incoterms, first met in 1965, Customs, International transport, International payments, Documentary credit. But having an excellent knowledge due to practice I can trains also about chosing the right countries, defining a marketing strategy, setting up an export network, going out for a market survey, organizing a trade fair and looking for new customers in new countries, settling technical or financial problems, etc...
