Why Paris Baguette?
Paris Baguette does two things better than any other bakery/café franchise: a comfortable, inviting customer experience and the highest-quality baked goods and coffees. While other bakery concepts continue to transition into full-service restaurants, leaving the lucrative segment largely free of competition, Paris Baguette remains focused on its mission to become the best neighborhood bakery café in the world.
The brand has decades of experience, a globally beloved brand name with its 4,000 cafes, a track record of nearly 10 years in the U.S., best-in-class operations, support, and infrastructure leading to a strong $2,623,525* in average unit sales volume.
Paris Baguette seeks to open 1,000 units across the country by 2030. After a year of staggering growth across the U.S. and Canada, Paris Baguette is poised for another explosive year of growth. Even in difficult economic times, Paris Baguette has attracted franchisees that see the value in dominating the neighborhood bakery café space, and the brand’s sales have remained strong.
