At first glance I may look quite scary, but looks are misleading ! I am very shy, and quite scared myself of humans… I am a marine animal, and contrary to mammals, I am an invertebrate. I belong to the family of molluscs. My body is composed of 8 arms, a head and a funnel.
I have 250,000,000 neurones and yes, I am very intelligent ! I can even measure an opening to check if I can fit through ! When I fell threatened I can eject ink or change colour to hide.
Our commitments
Sustainable development:
Sustainable development is "development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs", quote from Mrs. Gro Harlem Brundtland, Norwegian Prime Minister (1987)
A word from David - Founder of coq en pâte
Since 2007, Coq en pâte is a committed brand of children's clothing and fashion accessories, which places ethics at the heart of every creative process.

Since its creation, Coq en Pâte has been committed to making products of the highest possible quality that respect people and the environment.

Social commitment
Respect for suppliers
We choose our workshops with care, according to their know-how and the respect of the working conditions.
The workshops we work with are certified GOTS, SA 8000 or Sedex. These standards of social responsibility guarantee the respect of the fundamental rights of workers. Our clothes and accessories are made in India, toys and stationery in Brittany (France).
Our creations, essentially turned towards the endangered wildlife, wish to sensitize the young public and their relatives to the protection of an endangered biodiversity. Our commitments go further as we finance environmental education programs.
