DMC Embroidery Floss (Mouliné Six-Strand)

DMC is the historic Dollfus‑Mieg et Compagnie embroidery brand founded in Mulhouse, France (established 1746) and is best known for its Mouliné stranded cotton embroidery floss. DMC continues to produce its flagship stranded embroidery thread on its long‑standing Mulhouse site in France, and the brand’s threads (available in 500+ colour references) remain a global standard for embroidery.

In terms of ownership and corporate structure, DMC is part of The DMC Group (a portfolio platform for needlecraft brands). The DMC Group was formed under private equity ownership and was acquired by Lion Capital in 2019; Lion Capital is the ultimate owner as of the latest filings and press releases. The Group houses several complementary yarn and needlecraft brands alongside DMC, and provides centralised distribution, financing and acquisition support. (bluegemcp.com)

Manufacturing is primarily based in France (Mulhouse), where DMC maintains production of its core embroidery floss; however, the broader DMC Group sources, produces and sells yarns and related products through additional brands and facilities in other countries, so some product lines may be produced outside France. The operating and investment ownership sits with Lion Capital, a UK-headquartered private equity firm with offices in London and Los Angeles. (dmc.com)
