About This Video
In this short Le Macaron French Pastries video, franchise owner Thiery Galvan explains how he went from working in insurance in France to running the brand's location in Boca Raton, Florida.
His introduction to Le Macaron was personal. The founder's son, Gregory, was one of his insurance customers in France. Galvan later met Gregory's father during a trip to Florida in 2012 and discovered the franchise concept. The timing matched a long-held dream: he and his wife loved the United States and wanted to make a life in America. Le Macaron offered a way to do that while building a business together.
Galvan says the opportunity has opened many doors, but the best part is something his previous career never offered. In insurance, he explains, you rarely get the chance to make people smile. Behind the counter at Le Macaron, everyone smiles, and he says it makes him feel like a magician.
The video that Galvan opened his first location with his family and has been planning a second, a sign of his confidence in the concept.
For prospective franchisees, this video is a glimpse of what this specialty dessert business can offer beyond the numbers.
