Who Is the Michelin Man?



The Michelin Man, known officially as Bibendum, is one of the world’s longest-standing brand mascots.

Created by the Michelin tire company in France, Bibendum was originally drawn as a towering figure made entirely of stacked tires.

Early Depictions



The first sketches showed Bibendum holding a goblet filled with nails, glass, and stones — a bold way of saying Michelin tires could "drink up" road hazards.

His name "Bibendum" comes from the Latin phrase *Nunc est bibendum* — meaning "Now is the time to drink."

Evolution Over the Decades



In 1998, for his 100th birthday, he underwent a redesign to appear healthier, friendlier, and less bulky.

His adaptability is why the figure has lasted over 130 years.

From Tires to Fine Dining



Today, when people hear "Michelin," they think of both performance on the road and excellence on the plate.

Although the Michelin Man doesn’t appear at every ceremony, his image is still used in promotions and branding.

A Mascot That Refuses to Fade



His mix of history of the Michelin Man, humor, and adaptability ensures he connects with new audiences.

That’s why he still appears worldwide, from tire shops to lifestyle advertising.

The Legacy of the Michelin Man



After more than 130 years, the Michelin Man remains a unique cultural icon.
