Founded in 1986 in London, Pret A Manger set out with a simple mission – to create handmade food that you couldn’t find anywhere else. What started as a small shop has grown into an international business, with hundreds of shops across the world, serving millions of customers every year. As Pret continues to evolve as a dynamic, customer-focused business, we remain true to our roots – freshly preparing our food in shop kitchens throughout the day with high-quality ingredients, brewing organic coffee, and maintaining a deep commitment to sustainability. Our people are at the heart of our success. We believe in being kind, being generous, and being honest – values that shape everything we do. It’s why, at the end of each day, we donate as much of our unsold food as possible to those who need it most. And why we support those experiencing homelessness through The Pret Foundation. We welcome passionate, hardworking, wonderful people (like you!) who bring energy and enthusiasm to their work, and we give them the chance to shine. Pret is a place full of opportunities to grow, whether it’s through training, career progression, or the many ways we come together to give back. Join us, and be part of something truly special.

In 2019 PAUL is celebrating its 130 year anniversary, arriving at this impressive milestone via five generations dedicated to creating great-tasting bread. It’s a remarkable story of one family whose belief in traditional, labour intensive baking methods and insistence on top quality ingredients have created the largest bakery in France today, and taken the PAUL name to 28 other countries. PAUL has always been a community bakery, bringing the authentic taste of real French baking to its local customers. Whether they meet at cafes to chat with friends over a coffee and a pastry, or take food home to enjoy with friends, PAUL is dedicated to sharing its passion for food with customers all over the world. The recipes for bread, viennoiserie and patisserie have been handed down through the family for over one hundred years. The bakers are true artisans, with years of training. PAUL UK opened in London in 2000 with its flagship shop and restaurant in Covent Garden. There are now a total of 37 shops in the UK, primarily Central London locations. Expansion plans are undergoing. This expansion will provide great opportunities for more people to join the business and to develop a career as the company grows. Today PAUL has more than 500 stores operating in 29 countries, including France, Holland, Japan, Kuwait and the USA. It is still owned by the founding Holder family.
