As part of an official tour of Europe, Patrick Almonor, Deputy Mayor of Cap-Haïtien, met with Ms. Muriel Richard, First Deputy Mayor of Suresnes (a western suburb of Paris), responsible for Partnerships and External Cooperation.

The objective of the meeting was to discuss business diplomacy and the entrepreneurial role of municipalities; to present the project to create the Business Facilitation Office (BFA) / Destination Cap-Haïtien; and to revitalize the twinning relationship between Cap-Haitien and Suresnes.

During this meeting, it was agreed to establish a Commission to Relaunch Cap-Haitien–Suresnes Cooperation, composed of a representative from each of the two cities.

The parties reiterated their commitment to establishing a modern, pragmatic, and results-oriented cooperation, serving the people of Cap-Haitien and respecting mutual commitments. This relaunch is fully in line with the "Destination Cap-Haitien" vision and the economic openness driven by business diplomacy.
