Founded in 2013 by Christèle Merter, La Gentle Factory specializes in environmentally responsible apparel that is entirely designed and largely manufactured in France. The company offers garments produced from organic or recycled textiles, targeting consumers who value sustainability and local manufacturing. In 2024 the brand generated €1.29 million in revenue. After acquiring two Paris ready-to-wear boutiques in 2023, the firm is now preparing a strategic pivot toward a dedicated corporate textile distribution channel. The newly raised capital will fund the development of additional durable product lines to support this expansion. La Gentle Factory continues to emphasize short supply chains and eco-design as core differentiators in the competitive fashion market.
