About us

For over 50 years, The Smiley Company has been a global symbol of positivity, inspiring joy through fashion, art, lifestyle, and culture. What began as a simple reminder by Franklin Lougrani to “Take the Time to Smile” and the birth of of Smiley News in 1972, the brand then evolved again in 1997 with his son Nicolas Loufrani developing the brand for a new era. Today, The Smiley Company is one of the world’s top licensing brands, collaborating with industry leaders like LVMH, L’Oreal, Inditext, adidas, and Nestle.  

With a presence in 155+ countries and 40 million+ products sold annually, Smiley remains a family company that continues to shape modern culture—on screens, in stores, and in everyday life. And with Smiley Movement, the company is turning optimism into action, creating real change for a better world.
