Michel’s Patisserie – Celebrate the Good Things
Once you’ve committed to selecting a Michel’s Patisserie franchise, we support you through a structured application process, openly exchanging information and forming a pro-active, positive relationship from the outset. All Michel’s Patisserie franchisees attend a comprehensive yet relaxed training programme at our dedicated Academy on Queensland’s Gold Coast. This is followed by constant coaching and mentoring by your field based Business Development Manager who will assist your in managing, marketing and operating your business.

Here’s what some Michel’s Patisserie Franchisee’s have to say:
“I had a look at other franchise business before I decided to buy Michel’s. I decided to go with Michel’s because of the coffee and the variety that we offer. In the morning we sell lots of coffee and cake, or raisin toast and banana bread and in the afternoon it will be a pie or savoury. In the afternoon we close late so we will have a late customer on their way home from work will grab a cake to take home for a birthday or dessert. So, it’s the variety of product that Michel’s offers that is good for me and what made me decide to buy the business as well.”

I worked for a telecommunications company. I was with them for 16 years and became a team leader of 30 staff. There were a lot of changes with management and the company was going through a restructure so my job was giving me more pressure with no extra money. That's when I started thinking of buying a franchise. I chose Michel's because they have a full range of products and everyone has to eat. The demand is constant throughout the day, ensuring a busy business. You've got morning tea, lunch and afternoon tea - there is such a variety so you're not limited to only one part of the day. Most of my customers are regulars - they come in every day. I have established and ongoing rapport with local businesses, workers, schools and families. I think it’s important to develop these relationships as these are the customers who visit me for all of their birthdays and celebrations and I enjoy the public interaction.
