Founded in 1882 by Émile Camuset,[3] the brand first issued items branded with its now-famous rooster trademark in 1948.[4] The company's name and trademark are derived from the Gallic rooster, a national symbol of France.
Nowadays, Le Coq Sportif is a subsidiary of Airesis S.A., a Swiss-based investment company that holds a 69%-stake of LCS.[5][6] The current range of products by Le Coq Sportif includes sportswear, casual clothing and footwear.
