Lapérouse Holding, which is behind Parisian eateries Lapérouse and Prunier, is setting a bold course with a slew of acquisitions, new shareholders and a push into specialty retail.
The one-year-old hospitality group, cofounded by Benjamin Patou and Antoine Arnault with the support of a close-knit cadre of investors, revealed Thursday that it was set to snap up several blue-chip Parisian institutions
“France possesses the most beautiful restaurants in the world, but no one has yet managed to federate them in a leading independent group,” said Patou. “Our goal is to create a French champion able to help these institutions invest, innovate and grow without losing the soul that makes them unique.”
Lapérouse Holding’s goal is to top 50 million euros in revenue in 2026 and “continue with double-digit growth in coming years, with a particularly selective strategy in the constitution of [its] collection of addresses.”
