After a terrible year 2020, Olivier Salleron, president of the French Building Federation (FFB), anticipates a new difficult stage in 2021. In appearance, activity will rebound strongly, since the FFB
“foresees an overall increase in activity in 'just over 11% by volume'
.
In reality,
“this jump does not make it possible to compensate for the collapse of 2020
, regrets the leader.
Thus, compared to the activity of 2019, the 2021 forecast is down 5.6%. ”

It will not be the same next year.
