MOONACHIE, N.J.&nbsp;—&nbsp;<a href="https://ownaparisbaguette.com/">Paris Baguette</a>, the global bakery café franchise with over 4,000 locations around the world, closed 2025 with incredible momentum, marking their most successful year to date. With 77 new bakery cafés opened, including a new record of fourteen in December alone, 101 leases signed, and nearly 300 development agreements signed,&nbsp;<a href="http://1851franchise.com/parisbaguette/info">Paris Baguette</a> has laid the foundation for an unprecedented 2026, and continues on the trajectory to and beyond 1,000 North American locations by 2030.&nbsp;Paris Baguette’s momentum in 2025 was further validated by strong industry recognition. The brand was ranked No. 29 on&nbsp;<a href="https://www.entrepreneur.com/franchise500?type=multisearch&amp;data1=randomize:false,rankId:f500&amp;sort=f500&amp;sortMethod=global&amp;globalLimit=25">Entrepreneur’s 2026 Franchise 500®</a>, earning the No. 1 spot in the bakery café category, a significant jump from No. 42 overall the previous year. Paris Baguette was also recognized on the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.prweb.com/releases/paris-baguette-ranked-no-112-in-2025-technomic-top-500-chain-restaurants-report-climbing-over-20-spots-from-prior-year-302548964.html?utm_source=chatgpt.com">Technomic Top 500 Chain Restaurants Report</a>, ranking No. 112 and climbing more than 20 positions year-over-year, underscoring the brand’s sustained sales growth, operational strength, and expanding footprint across North America.Adding to the momentum, Paris Baguette broke ground on its&nbsp;<a href="https://www.crbgroup.com/news/je-dunn-construction-crb-break-ground-on-first-paris-baguette-manufacturing-facility-in-u-s?utm_source=chatgpt.com">first North American manufacturing facility in Burleson, Texas</a>, a strategic investment in the brand’s infrastructure designed to support long-term scalability and growth.In late 2025, Paris Baguette also welcomed&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/zac-sulma-05540736/">Zac Sulma</a> as Chief Operating Officer, bringing extensive hospitality and multi-unit leadership experience to support the franchise’s scalable growth. In his role, Sulma will focus on enhancing operational processes and strengthening franchisee support across the system.In addition to their footprint growth, Paris Baguette’s financial health remains strong with over five consecutive years of positive comparable sales growth.

Paris Baguette Welcomes Zac Sulma as New Chief Operating Officer

<a href="http://ownaparisbaguette.com">Paris Baguette</a>, the global bakery café franchise with over 260 locations across North America, has built an elevated brand and highly differentiated franchise model. With warm, welcoming café atmospheres, handcrafted beverages, expertly made cakes and breads and pastries baked fresh daily,&nbsp;<a href="http://1851franchise.com/parisbaguette/info">Paris Baguette</a> quickly stands out in the neighborhoods it enters. The brand’s personalized&nbsp;<a href="https://parisbaguette.com/rewards/">PB Rewards</a> program drives guest loyalty and engagement, helping franchise owners open strong and establish themselves as the go-to neighborhood bakery café.While these facets make Paris Baguette a strong investment opportunity, the structures and processes that empower franchisees leading up to the successful launch are just as important. As such, Paris Baguette has built a structured process to support new owners in their journey and equip them with what they need to succeed as they prepare to open their neighborhood bakery cafés. This refined process is one of the key reasons why Paris Baguette has been able to maintain their quality and franchisee satisfaction as they grow so rapidly across North America.Here’s what entrepreneurs can expect as they embark on their ownership journey with the French-inspired bakery café brand:<h2>Due Diligence and Discovery</h2>The path to ownership begins with a simple online inquiry. This initiates a mutual discovery phase where the candidate’s financial readiness and business experience are explored, and the candidate has an opportunity to learn more about Paris Baguette and their team.“The Paris Baguette home office team will contact you to go through your qualifications; once everything looks fine, you’ll start another interview process to discuss your plans to operate the business,” said&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/anvar-t-2010012/">Anvar Tulyag</a>, a multi-unit franchise owner in Fresno, California. “It’s not so much about ‘What is Paris Baguette?’ They want to get to know&nbsp;you, and it’s an opportunity for you to get to know the brand and the people you’ll be working with.”Key steps in this stage include reviewing Paris Baguette’s Franchise Disclosure Document and speaking with existing franchisees to learn about their experience of ownership.This emphasis on partnership and mutual evaluation ensures alignment before any agreements are signed. If everyone is in agreement, you’ll receive the franchise agreement to sign, and you’re officially a Paris Baguette franchisee.<h2>Site Selection and Buildout</h2>“After signing your agreement, you’ll get a welcome letter from your team,” said&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/krystie-keith-27850658/">Krystie Keith</a>, director of franchise development. “You’ll be assigned a new café development manager, a construction project manager as well as a real estate manager. There are three key groups of Paris Baguette support assigned to you as a franchisee, from real estate to ribbon-cutting, we have a subject matter expert that can help guide you through each process.”The immediate integration into the Paris Baguette support ecosystem means franchisees have access to a dedicated team throughout the process.“Having one point person for all things operational and one point person for construction allows you to build those relationships,” Keith said. “You always know who to go to, and you’re not in it alone.”Paris Baguette also leverages a network of real estate brokers who understand the complexities of the local markets and understand the dynamics, from traffic counts to co-tenancy, that drive success.“On the local level, real estate brokers are scouting,” Tulyag said. “They’ll propose locations based on what’s available and the information they’ve gathered. Honestly, I was skeptical when I learned someone from Sacramento would be helping me in the Fresno market, but I was pleasantly surprised. They know every street, every development, and the brokers in town. It’s still the franchisee’s responsibility to work with attorneys and review contracts, but brokers can guide you through signing the contract. So far, we have four agreements, and we’ve worked with these people on each of them. I’ve been very pleased.”The support team stays engaged during this stage to keep the development timeline moving.“We are swiftly growing, and we try our best to minimize the timeline as much as we can to get ahead,” Keith said. “When we know a franchisee is in final lease negotiations, we’ll start to test-fit layouts and begin requesting architectural proposals. Anything we can do concurrently helps our franchise go through the timeline as swiftly as efficiently as possible. The time management piece and our personal guidance throughout the entire process is really important. The hand-in-hand support is what really separates us from other franchises.”When the lease is signed, a construction project manager assists with connecting owners with architects and contractors who have worked on Paris Baguette shops before. Because these partners already understand the brand’s design, it lowers the chance of delays or expensive do-overs.The construction project manager will assist with managing the buildout timeline, from design to equipment sourcing, streamlining the process for the franchisee, guiding and sharing best practices and ways to minimize new cafe opening timeline.&nbsp;“It’s a piece of cake to build the café,” Tulyag said. “They make it so easy.”<h2>Training and Operational Readiness</h2>While the café itself takes shape, franchisees and their core management team — typically four bakers, four cakers, and a general manager&nbsp;are immersed in a four-week training program. The schedule is carefully timed to ensure the team is fully prepared and ready to step in when the café is built and ready to open, without leaving too much time for teams to sit idle as they wait for opening day.This operational support culminates in the arrival of the New Cafe Opening team. This specialized group works on-site for a minimum of 5 days &amp; up to 18 days for new markets and new owners leading up to and following the opening.&nbsp;“We don’t just open the doors and say ‘Good luck,’” Keith said. “The New Café Opening team implements systems, trains the full staff and provides hands-on support during the crucial initial sales period.”For Tulyag, this initial support was invaluable, especially when his café’s volume exceeded expectations.&nbsp; “I was blown away,” he said. “They saw that we needed more than two weeks of additional support. Paris Baguette was there with us, supporting us until we were able to hire additional team members.”<h2>Grand Opening and Long-Term Success</h2>The launch of a new Paris Baguette café is a thoughtful, two-stage process. The journey begins with a soft opening, allowing newly trained team members to perfect operational rhythms and manage guest flow in a controlled environment. This buffer period, which typically lasts two to four weeks, ensures the team is confident and prepared for high volumes.“We want to make sure the team is ready for the grand opening, or any guest appreciation day you wish to host” Keith said. “We also like to give the team a few weeks as a buffer before we invite local dignitaries out to the new café.”Once the team is ready, the official grand opening serves as a major community event, complete with a ribbon-cutting ceremony and invitations to local influencers and city officials. This milestone also marks another key transition in the franchisee’s experience.“I like to say that we pass the baton from the development team to the operations team,” Keith said. “The franchisee’s primary contact shifts from the development and construction managers to a dedicated district manager, who provides continuous, localized guidance during day to day operations.”<h2>A Partnership Built for Growth</h2>Choosing a franchise opportunity is more than an investment in a brand; it’s an investment in a honed system. The Paris Baguette model is meticulously designed to provide a comprehensive, end-to-end support structure that guides entrepreneurs through every stage of ownership.From the initial call to the ribbon cutting, Paris Baguette provides a roadmap for success. Their unwavering commitment to franchisee support is the crucial ingredient that shapes the opportunity into a thriving, community-focused business and powerful investment for the future.

In a competitive investing and business landscape, standing out requires more than just a great business model. It requires a model with a clear purpose, mission, and opportunities for connection. Entrepreneurs are looking for opportunities that allow them to do more than just manage operations, and consumers are actively looking to support brands that align with their own values.&nbsp;<a href="http://ownaparisbaguette.com">Paris Baguette</a>, the global bakery café franchise with over 260 cafés across North America, caters to both of these needs, weaving a focus on community into the fabric of the system.<a href="http://1851franchise.com/parisbaguette/info">Paris Baguette’s</a>&nbsp;<a href="https://parisbaguette.com/love-baked-in/">Love Baked In</a> program embraces this philosophy and reinforces their commitment to nourishing communities. And, while the program is one drawn up by the corporate team, the results are driven by local owners, their teams, and their guests.&nbsp;“The Love Baked In philosophy is central to our brand identity,” said&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/cathy-chavenet">Cathy Chavenet</a>, chief marketing officer. “It’s a pledge that extends our commitment to our communities and the neighborhoods we serve beyond the four walls of the cafés, and it encourages us to unite around shared causes and discover what’s possible when we work as a united group.”The Love Baked In program currently emphasizes two key partnerships:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.cityharvest.org/">City Harvest</a>, a New York-based food rescue organization, and&nbsp;<a href="https://www.nokidhungry.org/">No Kid Hungry</a>, through&nbsp;<a href="https://shareourstrength.org/">Share Our Strength</a>, benefitting children and families nationwide.Since partnering with City Harvest in 2023, Paris Baguette has donated over half a million pounds of food, including fresh pastries, sandwiches, and produce from NYC-area cafés. Their partnership with No Kid Hungry, which drove a campaign that ran from August 20th through September 30th, raised over $200,000 in round-ups and corporate and partner contributions that will be used to provide millions of meals to children who need them.This initiative demonstrates the brand’s community-first culture. The national partnership set the stage, but it was the passion of local franchise owners and their guests that really powered the campaign and amplified its impact.These partnerships are two distinct examples of how Paris Baguette shows up in the communities they enter, but the impact is even more wide-reaching, offering a differentiator among guests in the bakery café space, empowerment for franchise owners, and an attractive franchise family for owners and team members to join.“Our community-first culture sets Paris Baguette apart in a crowded market,” Chavenet said. “It provides us a ‘why’ that resonates with team members and guests on a personal level, encouraging brand loyalty and fostering an emotional connection with our guests beyond a single transaction.”The culture also sets the stage for franchise owners to give back in meaningful, authentic ways. With a corporate team that clearly demonstrates a commitment to community, franchise owners feel empowered to bring this culture into local practices and make real, timely impacts on their communities.&nbsp;For example, during the height of the Los Angeles wildfires, a local Paris Baguette owner donated pastries to firefighters and other first responders in the area.“When we speak with prospective franchise partners, we’re looking for more than just strong operators; we’re looking for community leaders,” Chavenet said. “People who want to own&nbsp;the neighborhood bakery café and be truly ingrained in their communities. Our Love Baked In culture is a key differentiating factor, and it helps us attract the right partners for healthy, community-focused growth.”The culture extends to support team hiring and retention, too. Talent is increasingly focused on spending their time with employers who align with their values, or those who provide opportunities to be a part of something bigger. A proven commitment to social impact serves as a powerful tool for attracting these types of team members, and as bakers, cakers, and baristas get to play a direct role in nourishing their communities, they become increasingly invested in the mission and success of both their local bakery café and that of the system and brand as a whole.“Our owners and team members are passionate about building loyal fan bases by first building stronger communities,” Chavenet said. “This is a foundational part of our shared success, and it is the blueprint for a resilient business model. Paris Baguette has proven time and time again that a framework of giving isn’t just good for the soul and community, it’s good for the business, too.” To find out more information on costs to buy this franchise, please visit&nbsp;<a href="https://ownaparisbaguette.com">https://ownaparisbaguette.com</a> or&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/parisbaguette">https://1851franchise.com/parisbaguette</a>.&nbsp;

By empowering franchise owners to “nourish community” beyond the four walls of the bakery café, Paris Baguette builds their local relevancy and loyalty among team members and guests alike.

How Paris Baguette’s ‘Love Baked In’ Culture Nourishes Communities

culture-love-baked-in-community

Though cake has traditionally been viewed as a high-commitment, shareable dessert reserved for special occasions and group gatherings, this model can box cake in as a rare indulgence and decrease guest frequency for bakery owners.&nbsp;<a href="https://ownaparisbaguette.com">Paris Baguette</a>, the global bakery café franchise with over 260 cafeés across North America, has turned this expectation on its head with a focus on unique menu items and single-serve options.“Today’s consumers have essentially rewritten the rules,” said&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/cathy-chavenet">Cathy Chavenet</a>, chief marketing officer. “Cakes and pastries have become an approachable luxury and a way to bring joy and celebration into everyday life. With this, guests are also looking for more unique or personalized options that feel like a true treat&nbsp;for them; options that are visually appealing and digitally shareable; and snackable, portable options that they can ‘grab-and-go’ to incorporate into their daily routines.”By deconstructing the traditional experience of cake,&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/parisbaguette/info">Paris Baguette</a> is turning it into an everyday, accessible luxury that drives traffic for franchisees, inspires social sharing, and builds loyalty with younger guests.<h2>Making Cake Personal Again</h2>With a single-serve approach, Paris Baguette is driving a shift from celebration to personal treat, lowering the barrier to purchase and encouraging spontaneous indulgence.“We have seen a fundamental shift in how younger guests approach indulgence,” Chavenet said. “They don’t want to wait for a birthday or milestone to celebrate. Our single-slice offerings democratize high-end cakes and make it possible for our guests to turn any normal day into a moment of indulgence and luxury.”This model aligns well with Gen Z’s view of food and “treats” as a form of self-care and a way to boost mood. By offering an accessible single portion, Paris Baguette empowers guests to buy a slice “just because,” encouraging a much higher frequency of visits compared to a traditional bakery model that focuses on whole-cake sales.The slice model is also more personalized. The whole-cake model forces a need for multiple servings and a commitment to a single flavor, but with a single slice, guests can visit independently or in groups with varied preferences. The ability to personalize the experience is another key differentiator, standing out with a generation that values individualism.<h2>Innovation That’s Both Seen and Savored</h2>Smaller portions make it easy to grab a quick treat, but Paris Baguette also puts real care into how everything looks. From a single slice to a full cake, you’ll see clean layers, varied textures and bright fruit, so the desserts look great and photograph well.“We’ve seen time and time again how important visually appealing, shareable food items are, especially for Gen Z,” Chavenet said. “Every baked good at a Paris Baguette is photo-ready right out of the display case, making it easy for ‘the camera to eat first’ and our guests to share their indulgent selections across a range of visual mediums before digging in themselves.”Paris Baguette’s identity as a global brand differentiates them even further. Rather than sticking to Americanized classics like chocolate and vanilla, they include flavors like matcha, ube, and yuzu, occupying a distinct market niche. Different flavors and cake types catch the eye of the guest (and anyone they share it with) while also introducing new flavors and textures that are savored throughout the dining experience.“Our&nbsp;<a href="https://parisbaguette.com/product/heavenly-cheesecake/">Heavenly Cheesecake</a> is a perfect embodiment of how these differentiators unfold in practice,” Chavenet said. “It’s visually distinct with a soft, billowing shape; it’s perfectly portioned for one; and it’s texturally unique, sparking interest at first sight and encouraging presence and enjoyment throughout the dining experience.”<h2>The Franchisee Advantage: Why This Model Wins</h2>For Paris Baguette owners, these factors come together to create a favorable business position. For franchisees, smaller cake portions encourage guests to visit more frequently than they would for a whole cake purchase, turning the “once-a-year celebration” guest into a low-friction, high-frequency guest.Within the single-slice space, Paris Baguette is still a clear favorite among consumers. With unique flavors, textures, and visual appeal, their slices catch the eyes of guests and lend themselves to organic social sharing, driving further visibility online.Paris Baguette’s “made for the feed” cake slices turn a simple purchase into an opportunity for user-generated content, which starts a long-lasting visibility ripple across social. When a guest posts a photo of a beautiful slice, they are providing an authentic, visual endorsement to their entire network, creating social proof and interest that drives foot traffic directly to the cafés.“Our strategy is about supporting a great guest experience in the moment while positioning our franchisees to build connections and relationships for the future,” Chavenet said. “We are capturing the highly profitable, all-day market for approachable luxury, providing a complete café experience that positions us as the go-to dessert destination for a generation that values personal, shareable treats.”To find out more information on costs to buy this franchise, please visit&nbsp;<a href="https://ownaparisbaguette.com">https://ownaparisbaguette.com</a> or&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/parisbaguette">https://1851franchise.com/parisbaguette</a>.
