The factory has been labelled as "Entreprise du Patrimoine français" that translates in English to "company of French heritage". The company began its business by selling primarily tights and stockings. Over the years the business has expanded to selling various types of hosiery. The company has continued to flourish as a family-owned business through the complications and setbacks of financial institutions and changing leaderships.

The company produces their products this way so that they have good control over what is happening to ensure excellent quality. Their products are all made in France.
