Paris Baguette, an international bakery-café concept, will open two locations in Portland sometime in 2021, according to a press release.
The Korea-based chain is known for its assortment of cakes, pastries and breads. The two locations will be the first two in the state of Oregon. There are more than 82 corporate and franchise bakery-cafés in the United States and more than 4,000 internationally.
“We are looking forward to leveraging our West Coast presence with our expansion into Oregon,” said Gregg Koffler, vice president of Franchise Sales and Development, in the release. “We know Portland will be a great opportunity for Paris Baguette based on the customer support we already have throughout the rest of the region.”
Koffler said they were confident the bakery-café‘s vibrant atmosphere would resonate well with the Portland community, as well as its menu, which includes sandwiches, salads, pastries and cakes.
The bakery-café is the latest Asian-based chain to arrive in Oregon, with Tous Les Jours, a French-Korean bakery in Beaverton and 85C, a Taiwanese bakery/café in Tigard both opening within the last year.
Jay Chun of Portland is the franchisee opening the two locations. He and his partners have retail and restaurant experience they’re taking with them into the Paris Baguette locations.
“Being from Korea, my partners and I absolutely love the products and offerings from Paris Baguette, and we are looking forward to offering the diverse menu variety to the Portland community,” Chun said in the release.
