I don't know who made them, but Focal was a K-Mart brand. I don't think they sell any store brand lenses or flashes anymore though. If I had to guess, I'd say Sigma or Cossina made the lenses for them. There were other lens makers back then too, so it could be someone else as well. I bought a cheap Focal flash in the mid 80's, and it looked like it was made by Sunpack. Chances are they used a variety of manufacturers.
