Independent Family

Lafont’s story begins with Louis Lafont in 1923 and the opening of his optical boutique at 11 rue Vignon Paris. The Maison took a pivotal turn in the 1980s with Laurence and Philippe Lafont introducing their iconic frame – GENIE. Today Thomas and Matthieu, the fourth generation of the Lafont family, head Maison Lafont, where independence remains a pillar of the brand.

Together they are committed to the future ensuring eco-responsibility in their products and services.

At Transcona Optical we are always looking to bring in new and exciting eyewear for our customers to choose from including eyewear from companies that are constantly innovating and trying to improve their ecological footprint with the products they produce.
