The HOLDER Group, the Art of Entrepreneurship

For over fifty years the HOLDER Group has been setting standards and flying the flag in our market sector. The company owes its unique positioning to the enterprising nature of our founder Francis Holder, who took the art of entrepreneurship as the driving force behind his business.

The HOLDER Group has always focused on continual innovation initiatives to set itself out from the crowd. Traditional products, exclusive positioning, new concepts, state of the art technology…HOLDER innovations are often copied but rarely leapfrogged by the competition. Our innovations are in tune with consumer habits, a celebration of consumer moments.

Our family business may have artisan bread making traditions coursing through its veins but our three
activities: bread making, pastries and catering employ over 7,743 staff around the world. 23 countries call themselves home to 453 points of sale, with group brands PAUL, LADURÉE, SAINT PREUX, Manufacture du Pain, CHÂTEAU BLANC and Moulin Bleu all keeping a love of great taste alive every day.

Now with our eye firmly focused on our global future, the HOLDER Group flies the flag for the French Art de Vivre in the four corners of the world. Our brand names are quality benchmarks with products that transform simple moments of the day into daily delights.
