French knitwear manufacturer from the historic textile basin of Northern France.
Maison Lemahieu is a French knitwear manufacturer based in Hauts-de-France, near Lille, within one of Europe’s historic industrial textile regions. Founded in the 1940s, the company specialises in circular knitting and produces underwear, t-shirts, technical garments, and knit fabrics for both its own collections and private-label clients.
The brand operates as both a manufacturer and a brand, with strong expertise in knitting, dyeing, and garment assembly. Its industrial heritage reflects the long tradition of textile manufacturing in the Nord region, once a major European centre for spinning and knitwear production.
Today, Le Mahieu positions itself at the intersection of industrial know-how and local manufacturing, supplying brands that seek French-made knitwear and traceable production chains.
Le Mahieu represents the industrial backbone of French knitwear. Unlike purely marketing-driven brands, it is a true manufacturer with decades of textile expertise. Its position in the Hauts-de-France textile basin adds historical depth and credibility to any brand relying on its production.
