In 1991, Gérard Dubois opened the first La Rose Noire Pâtisserie in the most prestigious shopping mall on Hong Kong Island. In over 2 decades, that one simple operation, a 30-seat restaurant and cake shop, has turned into a reputable enterprise. This encouraging achievement is beyond his wildest expectation. From an initial selection of 28 items, La Rose Noire now has over 500 varieties in its product brochure, fulfilling the needs of all sectors in the market.
In 2012, Gérard and the team opened a HACCP/ISO/FSSC 22000 certified state-of-the-art factory in Clark Free Port, The Philippines. This production centre has more than 2,000 staff members working in an over 150,000 square foot area to meet the demands from 60 countries in 5 continents. It has the capacity and capability to cope with the continuously expanding overseas market.
