Established in 2017, the label “Made in Paris” showcases products manufactured or significantly transformed in the capital to promote local production and creation.
For the 2024 edition, 20 Minutes was invited to participate in the jury that selects the winners of five categories from the 491 labeled products of the year. They will receive prizes ranging from 2,000 to 500 euros and will have the right to exhibit at the City Hall and at the Tourism Office’s boutique.
In an exclusive reveal, we present the names of the standout winners of this 2024 promotion. From fashion, food, home decor, to technology, Paris is brimming with talented creators and artisans.
The “Made in Paris” label has become a significant event in November, awarded to products “whose local manufacturing or transformation process within Paris is evident.” In total, 491 products have received this esteemed recognition, both a mark of appreciation for the artisans and a quality guarantee for consumers.
Receiving additional support, three winners have been selected by a jury in each of the five categories. As an invited member of this jury, 20 Minutes reports on the deliberations and exclusively reveals the names of the grand winners of the 2024 promotion.
The jury, led by Nicolas Bonnet-Oulaldj, Deputy Mayor of Paris in charge of commerce, craftsmanship, art professions, and fashion, recently met at the City Hall to decide on the products worthy of the label. Other members of the jury include Parisian figures and industry experts.
Despite the high cost of manufacturing in Paris, the products awarded are recognizable for their rich history and innovation. For the fashion and accessories category, it was the coats from SixSoeurs that stood out, being primarily made in Paris while focusing on family history and ethical production.
In the artisanal food category, specialty bakeries and local distilleries and gardens were well represented. Attention was drawn to the importance of accessible prices, especially considering the cost of living in Paris, while giving credit to businesses like the Boulangerie Mie Mie.
The continued visibility and support for these local products contribute to encouraging local consumption, promoting quality, supporting local craftsmanship, and highlighting historically significant techniques and businesses.
