Shipping company MSC and France’s Saint Nazaire shipyard won a 2 billion euros ($2.2 billion) deal to build two cruise liners, in a contract unveiled by the companies on Monday in the presence of French Prime Minister Edouard Philippe.
The contract formed part of this week’s “Choose France” drive, which is an annual investment event created by President Emmanuel Macron to draw business leaders to France en route to the World Economic Forum in Davos each January.
