Message from the CEO

Bienvenue to March. This month, we celebrate the institution of French Cuisine by participating in Goût De France, or Good France, now in its fifth year. 2019's gourmet festival celebrating gastronomy focuses on sustainable and healthier fare.

It is also International Women's Day this month. We continue our support and solidarity with the women whose driving force makes this country, our families, homes, lives and, last but nor least, this company so much more powerful. Find out more about the women within Thalias Hospitality who inspire us daily with a collection of interviews. Their dedication, integrity and hard work is instantly noticeable whenever you step into any of our outlets.

I applaud them all.

Yours sincerely,
Arnaud DARC
