Paul Frank industries have established themselves as the top manufacturer of colourful accessories and characters.  Paul Frank started in the 1990’s when he was an art student living in California.  He would design and make wallets from vinyl off cuts from his art course that featured little characters that he created.  He started to give away the wallets as presents to his close friends who loved the original characters.  When he heard his friend’s praises he started building the Paul Frank Industries brand.  10 years later Paul Frank had firmly established himself as a leading clothing manufacturer with world wide distribution as well as stores in some of the biggest cities in the world.  There are now a whole range of characters which includes the likes of Clancy the Giraffe, Worry Bear and Mika the Cat.  The Paul Frank range has now spread to include Paul Frank pyjamas, clocks, underwear and their range of t-shirts and trousers.
