CIFA Aubervilliers Paris

The center CIFA (Centre International France Asie) was created in 2006, to try to relieve congestion of the Sentier district by moving the wholesalers a stone’s throw from Paris. The commune of Aubervilliers now constitutes an interesting alternative with important sale and storage space. Since then, many professionals in prêt-à-porter have set up here (importers and clothing wholesales, accessories, fashion jewellery, handbags, lingerie, men and women’s fashion, etc.).

CIFA has a large space of 40,000 m² for sales and storage. Due to its size and the number of wholesalers and the provenance of buyers, CIFA is considered today as the largest wholesale trade center for personal goods in Western Europe.

The expansion of CIFA has been planned with the construction of the centre CIFA 4 which will allow additional wholesalers to settle there.

Close to the ring road and major highways axes such as AutoRoute A1 whicb serves the airport CDG, the CIFA Aubervilliers is located just 30 minutes from CDG Roissy airport and a few minutes from the centre of Paris via line 12 on the metro.
