In 1991, Gerard Dubois opened the first La Rose Noire P�tisserie 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. Today, La Rose Noire employs 250 staff members in Hong Kong working around the clock at its original production center in Kowloon Bay.
