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.

The Michelin Man’s First Look

Though unusual, these depictions cemented him as a recognizable figure in European advertising.

This classical motto tied Michelin branding to culture and sophistication, helping the mascot appeal beyond car enthusiasts.

From Mummy-Like Figure to Slim Icon

This updated look remains in place today, ensuring he stays relevant to a new generation.

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

The Michelin Man and Food Culture

While Bibendum doesn’t personally hand out Michelin stars, his image is closely tied to the guide that ranks the world’s top restaurants.

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

Why Bibendum Still Matters in 2025

In an era of digital marketing, few mascots have survived — but the Michelin Man remains iconic.

For the Michelin Group, Bibendum represents more than branding.

Why Bibendum Will Keep Rolling

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

As long as Michelin tires keep rolling and Michelin stars keep shining, Bibendum will remain part of the story.
