French high-end furniture maker Ligne Roset is doubling down on durability, design heritage, and B2B expansion as it accelerates international growth. Co-CEO Antoine Roset said the family-owned group, founded 166 years ago in France's Ain region, combines publishing, manufacturing, and distribution across three brands: Ligne Roset, Cinna, and Ligne Roset Contract for hospitality clients.

The company collaborates with more than 70 designers, including Jean Nouvel, Inga Sempé, and Philippe Nigro, while nurturing new talent through the Cinna Talent Revealer competition. Its best-selling Togo sofa, designed in 1973 by Michel Ducaroy, has sold more than two million units and now carries a digital certificate to guarantee authenticity.
In 2024, the group reported €250 million in revenue, operating 600 points of sale worldwide, with 75% of sales generated internationally, notably in Germany, China, and the United States. The company plans to accelerate B2B growth and expand further in the Middle East, while reinforcing its positioning around long-lasting, high-quality furniture.
