Moulin Roty

Moulin Roty has been producing toys for more than 40 years and offers a collection of dolls, characters, stories and play possibilities.

An iconic French toy brand with a beautiful collection of dolls and soft toys, Moulin Roty’s range is vintage, modern and classically cute all at the same time

Started in 1972, Moulin Roty was a cooperative of a group of 20 or so friends searching for a common project that would provide  work and a certain way of life. After purchasing an old mill that had fallen into ruins, they renovated the mill so their families could move in and live together as a commune. The adventure began with screen printing and craft items. In 1975 Francoise Blindermann joined the group and helped introduce two new items to the company’s catalogue – a pulling car and a rag doll.

In 1988, a fire destroyed the entire company’s records – designs, machinery, files and stock – and they started again from scratch as a public limited company. Over the next decade a number of artisans joined the company and in 2000 the brand  was able to start travelling the globe thanks to a British subsidiary and the development of the web.

Today, Moulin Roty represents 40 years of dreams a multitude of characters and stories as well as more than more than 800 products. Each year, 1.5 million products leave the company for destinations near and far, crossing the oceans and going to live in lands far away where they will continue to be loved and lived with for generations to come.
