We introduce and investigate using Hilbert modules the properties of the Fourier algebra $A(G)$ for a locally compact groupoid $G$ . We establish a duality theorem for such groupoids in terms of multiplicative module maps. This includes as a special case the classical duality theorem for locally compact groups proved by P. Eymard.
