What Angelina - Versailles does

Angelina Paris is a historic French patisserie and salon de thé (tea room) brand founded in 1903, currently operating more than 30 addresses across France and internationally, including flagship locations on Rue de Rivoli and Rue du Bac in Paris, Dubai Mall, New York's 6th Avenue, and Kuwait's The Avenues. The company sells premium French pastries — most notably the signature Mont-Blanc chestnut meringue — alongside macarons, chocolates, hot chocolate, fine grocery products (teas, jams, confectionery, chestnut-based items), and curated gift boxes. Its core operations combine traditional French pastry-making savoir-faire, preserved Belle Époque décor in physical salons, and a multi-channel distribution model encompassing in-store dining, takeaway, click-and-collect, an e-boutique delivering across Île-de-France, gift cards, and private event hosting at flagship locations.

The business model is primarily unit-priced retail and food-service revenue with a strong gift and occasion-based overlay: individual pastries are priced at €8.20-€8.60, signature macaron gift boxes start at €12 (with the Emblématiques collection at €25.90), and chocolate boxes are priced from €15.90. Customer segments include affluent individual consumers (locals and tourists), gift buyers for personal and corporate occasions, and enterprise clients booking private events. The company operates seasonal collection launches (e.g., Automne-Hiver 2025) and limited-edition occasion creations (Mother's Day, Easter, Valentine's Day) to drive repeat visits and gifting demand. Angelina Paris is a privately held subsidiary of Groupe Bertrand, a diversified hospitality conglomerate, and operates without public revenue disclosure or external funding.
