Paris Baguette announced Friday that it received the top rating in the 2026 Co-growth Index assessment.

The bakery chain was recognized for its sustained efforts to support stable franchise operations and strengthen its cooperative foundation with partner companies. The Co-growth Index is a metric designed to promote shared growth between large corporations and small and medium-sized enterprises.

To improve the financial stability of its franchisees, Paris Baguette provides sales consulting and marketing support. The company also runs a range of co-growth programs, including a scholarship system for the children of franchise owners and part-time employees.

Paris Baguette also operates systems aimed at building a co-growth framework with its franchisees and partner firms. Since 2009, the company has run a voluntary dispute mediation committee to resolve conflicts with franchisees independently. Since 2019, it has renewed a "partner ecosystem strengthening agreement" every three years to support both franchisees and suppliers.

"We will continue to actively reflect the voices from the field, develop practical support measures that allow us to grow together, and strengthen our shared-growth management," a Paris Baguette official said.
