Clear Vision for the Future of the Maison JEAN-FRANÇOIS REY

The Maison JEAN-FRANÇOIS REY is known as an artistic icon and innovative design house, with an individual handwriting and a great design team creating unique made in France products.

The company is successfully operating since decades on a worldwide level as an ambassador of French design culture.

Jean-François Rey has decided to hand over the responsibility and the control of the company into the hands of Walter Pirinoli, Dan Levi and Ralf Kmoch.

The three managers joined forces years ago, are highly experienced specialists in the eyewear business (Visibilia/Visioptis) and are seeing great potential in further developing the unique brands and preparing the company for all future challenges.

Their vision of maintaining the origins and structures of the Maison JEAN-FRANÇOIS REY embracing the core contents of design and quality driven approach as well as the international experience they represent, have been convincing Joëlle and Jean-François also on a personal level.

Joëlle and Jean-François Rey will continue to manage and support the design team, which is essential on the way to prepare the company for future challenges maintaining the iconic concept of design and colors and assuring continuity to the Maison JEAN-FRANÇOIS REY.

“I am deeply convinced that the steps undertaken will be the best to keep on writing the success story of the Maison JEAN-FRANÇOIS REY we have developed together in a way that my legacy and contribution will be substantial also for the years to come.” (Jean-François Rey – Honorary President)
