ADCL is a French eyewear company focused on designing and distributing optical and sunglass collections. Based in Montreuil, the group manages licensed brands and develops proprietary lines for the French optical market.
ADCL operates as a designer–distributor in France, structuring a portfolio that spans fashion and lifestyle brands (MAJE, Sandro, Hackett, Christian Lacroix, Schott, INVU, Ekkiu) and its own label Atelier Vendôme. The company also collaborates with international partners to serve opticians locally.
Designs vary by brand: Parisian ready‑to‑wear spirit for MAJE and Sandro, British heritage for Hackett, bold color and pattern for Christian Lacroix, and urban cues for Schott. The Ekkiu line uses Swiss‑engineered construction with environmentally‑considered acetate and Eastman Tritan lenses.
The portfolio covers optical and sun categories across fashion and premium segments: MAJE, Sandro, Schott, Hackett, Christian Lacroix, INVU, Ekkiu, plus the in‑house brand Atelier Vendôme with a jewelry‑inspired approach.
Licensed collections are developed with brand partners for the French market. Atelier Vendôme frames are produced in Vendôme, France, by Manufacture Vendôme. Ekkiu highlights material choices such as environmentally‑considered acetate and BPA‑free Eastman Tritan lenses; these sustainability notes are specific to that collection.
ADCL distributes to opticians in France through a dedicated sales network and agreements with brand owners. A partnership with Mondottica set up French distribution for Sandro, MAJE, Hackett and Christian Lacroix, while INVU and Ekkiu are managed with Swiss Eyewear Group.
ADCL positions itself in France as a designer–distributor combining recognized international fashion licenses with a locally made premium house line.
