From French compagnie, meaning company or association, abbreviated as 'Cie' and used as a suffix in French business naming conventions.
When you see 'Cie' at the end of a French company name like 'Moët & Chandon, Cie,' you're seeing a French convention that signals the business is a partnership or company—it's the French equivalent of 'Co.' in English.
