Montgomery County’s first location of the Paris Baguette bakery and café is now open in The Woodlands.
The brand has more than 200 bakery cafés open in North America and more in development. The Woodlands location opened Saturday at 2501 Research Forest Drive in The Woodlands.
The Woodlands development is being led by franchisees Jorge Molina and Armando Cordova.
Paris Baguette is a French-inspired bakery café with South Korean roots. The first U.S. café opened in 2005 and the company projects there will be 1,000 locations total by 2030.

After growing up in Mexico City and moving to the U.S. 11 years ago, Cordova paved a career for himself in the restaurant industry with part of his career spent in The Woodlands.
What he noticed was the community had very few bakeries.
“After working in restaurants for over a decade, I realized that I very much enjoy hospitality, and when I discovered what Paris Baguette had to offer, I immediately connected with the bakery café concept and the neighborhood focus the brand cultivates,” said Cordova. “There really isn’t
a bakery café like Paris Baguette in The Woodlands community, and we are excited to introduce everyone to the delicious and high quality menu that Paris Baguette offers.”
The Woodlands cafe became a reality with the support of Cordova’s business partner Molina.
