Cherbourg
The city of Cherbourg has faced economic challenges since the nineties with the restructuration of the military defence base, the closure of businesses and the loss of companies in the commercial harbour. The recent economic crisis has accelerated the decline of traditional sectors such as defence, fishing, and cross-channel traffic but also high tech manufacturing.
The major challenge for Cherbourg will be to strengthen its economic mutation based on the developpment of new sectors (tourism, green technologies, creative industries, products linked to the sea) in order to limit its dependence on major sectors like defence, nuclear, or shipbuilding. Cherbourg is a maritime economy in restructuration following a structural crisis.
