ABOUT THE COMPANY

Le Pain Quotidien US and Little Beet Brands came together in 2020 through a serendipitous and creative corporate restructuring during the COVID-19 pandemic with support and financing from Eldridge Industries. Now under new executive management the company is experiencing a rebirth, doubling down on the food concepts and operations excellence which propelled these brands to the forefront of the industry.

With a focus on building a company rooted in long term success in an ever changing and hyper-competitive industry, we are assembling a leadership team fit for the moment – equally as excited about the future as grounded in how to get there. There are challenges and opportunities at every level, side by side with truly incredible upside. Leaders at the company should be confident in navigating change and supporting change management, building and leading growing teams, and strategic execution in the hospitality space.
