Paris Baguette sets sights on Vancouver expansion

The international bakery-café brand is seeking development opportunities in Vancouver in a bid to expand its western Canada presence.

Paris Baguette currently operates locations on the West Coast of the United States – recently announcing two new locations in Portland – and identifies Vancouver as a natural expansion market for the brand.

“As a bakery that innovates through global influences, we see tremendous opportunities in Vancouver and western Canada,” says Gregg Koffler, vice president of franchise sales and development.

“We are receiving great interest after our recent announcement targeting Toronto for growth. This interest in Canadian growth, coupled with our strong presence in the western United States, makes Vancouver an ideal opportunity for both the brand and potential franchisees.”

Paris Baguette is specifically looking for area developers and multi-unit owners interested in bringing their passion for business and service to their local communities.

“Our concept serves today’s evolving consumer behaviors well, as we offer grab-and-go menu items and versatile footprints for a variety of retail spaces,” continues Koffler. “We look forward to meeting with potential operators in Vancouver and bringing our global bakery-café to western Canada.”

In targeting Vancouver, Paris Baguette plans to strengthen its presence as a global franchise concept.
