Tous les Jours, a global French-Asian bakery café chain, has opened its first Long Island location.
The new 1,800-square-foot shop is located at 41 Great Neck Road in Great Neck.
Owned and operated by franchisees Jinxia Li, Yi Chen and Yao Chen, the Great Neck bakery café is the chain’s ninth in New York State. The company expects to add more Long Island locations in the near future.
“As Tous les Jours’s worldwide footprint continues to grow, we are highly motivated to expand its popularity on Long Island with the opening of our Great Neck location,” Li said in a company statement. “The Great Neck neighborhood is teeming with families eager to support businesses in their community. I have 10 years of restaurant experience, so when I learned about Tous les Jours and began communicating with the company, it was immediately evident to me that the bakery would be a success in my neighborhood.”
Tous les Jours offers more than 300 artisan pastries, gourmet cakes and desserts baked in-store daily. One of the brand’s bestselling items is its signature Cloud Cake, a fluffy sponge cake filled with freshly made whipped cream flavors like milk, chocolate, strawberry and green tea.
The all-in cost to open a Tous les Jours franchise ranges from $609,980 to $831,144, according to FranchiseGrade.com.
The company got its start in 1997 with one location in South Korea. First launched in America in 2004, Tous les Jours franchises more than 80 stores throughout the U.S. The chain, which now has more than 1,450 locations around the world, reported sales of $697 million in 2021, according to Franchise Times.
