Montblanc (company)

Montblanc (UK: /ˌmɒˈblɒ(k)/, US: /ˌmɑːn(t)ˈblɑːŋk/) is a German manufacturer and distributor of luxury goods, founded in Berlin in 1906, and currently based in Hamburg.

[3] Its sister companies include luxury brands Cartier, Van Cleef & Arpels, Chloé, and Baume et Mercier.

[6] Montblanc fountain pens are considered to be among the best in the world, and are collected for their smooth writing capabilities as status symbols, artwork, and investments.

[citation needed] While Montblanc is most known for its luxury pens, it also designs and distributes bags, small leather goods, and watches.

CEO Nicolas Baretzki told Vogue Business in 2022, he believes leather goods will become one of the company's biggest categories, possibly even overtaking pens.

[citation needed] In January 2014, Hugh Jackman was announced as Montblanc's Global Brand Ambassador, outside of the United States.
