Jeujura

Jeujura's roots date back to 1911, when Henri Liégeon founded his woodworking shop in Champagnole in the Jura Mountains. The company manufactured everyday items such as tool handles, folding chairs, and deck chairs. When the founder's son, Bernard Liégeon, took over the management in 1931, the company shifted its focus to the production of wooden games, toys, and calculators. Inspired by the charm of mountain chalets, Bernard Liégeon later introduced his own type of wooden construction set, which soon made the company famous. In 1948, the Jeujura company was founded on this basis. In the 1970s, under the leadership of the third generation of the Liégeon family, the company succeeded in establishing itself not only on the French market but also abroad. Emphasis was placed on the continuous development of products and their thematic expansion. In the early 1980s, the company moved to its own premises not far from its birthplace and, at the same time, added variety and color to its products and packaging. A decade later, under the leadership of the founder's great-granddaughter Catherine Varacca, the company invested heavily in machinery and expansion. Shortly after Jeujura celebrated its 100th anniversary with the release of a collector's series of its toys, it received the "Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant" state award, which is given to French companies that preserve cultural heritage and excel in craftsmanship and industrial know-how. At the same time, the company joined forces with other traditional French toy manufacturers, Petitcollin and Vilac. Jeujura continues to develop and launch new, authentic toys, games, and aids for children and adults every year.
