"It's really about making sure that as we grow, every Paris Baguette still offers that amazing quality and freshness our customers expect. We've got a lot of momentum, and this investment means we can keep giving our guests that fantastic neighborhood bakery café experience they love, no matter how big we get."Local officials, including Burleson Mayor Chris Fletcher and Johnson County Judge Christopher Boedeker, joined Paris Baguette executives for the groundbreaking ceremony. The investment is expected to make Paris Baguette one of the largest employers in Johnson County.“Texas is more than just the location of our first North American plant — it’s the launchpad for our future,” Tipton said. “By investing in local jobs, innovation, and sustainability, we’re creating opportunities that benefit not just our brand, but the communities we serve.”
