Recently, news broke out that the MEXX clothing chain filed for bankruptcy.

Raymond Lanctôt Ltée wants to reassure ECPs that regular operational activities for our MEXX ophthalmic frames and sunglasses (such as purchasing, warranty, returns, etc.) at Raymond Lanctôt Ltd will not be affected by this temporary administration situation.

Our supplier OWP, located in Germany, still owns the MEXX licence for the frames and is in excellent financial health. As a matter of fact, about 20 new MEXX frames will be available to you in January 2015.

If you have any questions, please call your local representative.
