Paris Baguette Cafe

Paris Baguette Cafe is a bakery café chain known for its French-inspired pastries, breads, cakes, and café beverages, all with a distinct Asian influence. The brand’s story began in 1945, when the founding family opened a small bakery in South Korea. This early venture laid the foundation for what would become Paris Baguette, officially launched in 1986 under the ownership of SPC Group, a major South Korean food conglomerate.

Since opening its first U.S. location in 2005, Paris Baguette has steadily expanded across North America. Over the past five years, the company has accelerated its growth, entering new markets and increasing its presence in both major cities and suburban retail centers. As of November 2025, Paris Baguette operates more than 160 locations in the United States and over 4,000 stores worldwide. The brand’s U.S. headquarters is based in Moonachie, New Jersey.

A notable milestone in the company’s recent evolution is the opening of its first U.S. manufacturing facility in Texas in 2025. This investment supports a more scalable supply chain and demonstrates a long-term commitment to the North American market. Paris Baguette continues to grow through a mix of corporate and franchise locations, with plans to open more than 60 new U.S. stores each year. Priority growth markets include New York, California, Texas, Illinois, Florida, and Hawaii.

Paris Baguette’s flexible formats range from full-service bakery cafés to smaller grab-and-go concepts, allowing the brand to fit a variety of retail environments. Its international reputation, consistent expansion, and adaptable store models have established Paris Baguette as a credible and attractive tenant for a wide range of commercial properties.
