Miss France is the trademark of an annual beauty pageant. Rights to the trademark were obtained in 2002 by the Dutch television production company Endemol[1] through its subsidiary Miss France SAS[2], whose director general is Sylvie Tellier, Miss France 2002[3]. Endemol also holds the rights in France to send contestants to the Miss World and the Miss Universe pageants. Local and regional pageants that provide entrants for the Miss France contest are organized by the Comité Miss France, whose president is Geneviève de Fontenay[3].
