L'offre

Non-PRO French to English Bus/Financial Business/Commerce (general) promoting a fashion show
As in the following passage:
'On attend quelque 600 marques côté produit fini, dont une centaine exposent pour la première fois. L’offre est clarifiée sur le même principe que celui qui était déjà en vigueur pour le salon de septembre dernier : elle est scindée en 4 secteurs ......'
and here:
'auxquels s’ajoute l’offre des jeunes créateurs'

Thanks, Cervin.
agree Sheila Wilson : Certainly for the second, maybe something a little more 'general' for the first? They don't seem to me to be the same in English

range of articles/products available

depending on the context, I tend to work along these lines or similar when translating "offre", "supply" not being descriptive enough...
Peer comment(s):
