## Story

Paris Baguette, the over-4,000-unit bakery café concept, has opened the first of several Canadian locations. The new Yonge Sheppard Centre bakery café marks the brand’s entry into the Canadian market, with additional locations set to open in the Greater Toronto Area, Edmonton, Calgary and Vancouver.

“The expansion of our bakery cafés into Canada marks an exciting period of growth for Paris Baguette,” said Darren Tipton, CEO of Paris Baguette in North America, in a press release.

The new location is 2,300 square feet and includes open seating for up to 20 guests, though many choose to take breads, pastries, sandwiches and salads to go.

“The push for Canadian expansion came after the brand noted considerable success in the US over the past 18 months as sales have grown increasingly,” Hogan Short wrote for Daily Hive.

Paris Baguette is a bakery café franchise with more than 4,000 units across the globe. The brand first franchised in the U.S.

in 2015 and has since established nearly 150 locations in markets across the country, making it one of the premier franchise opportunities in its category. Paris Baguette’s primary mission, executed every day by its expert staff of bakers, cakers and baristas, is to share moments of joy with customers and help customers share moments of joy with their friends and family by providing world-class cakes, pastries, coffees, breads and other French-inspired bakery café fare.
