Le Macaron was founded in 2009 by mother-daughter duo Rosalie and Audrey Guillem to bring a taste of France to America, and to fill a gap in the pastry segment as the first concept to focus on the macaron. The first store opened in Sarasota, Florida, drawing in customers from as far as three hours away to get a taste of the airy but decadent, very Instagrammable French treat.

Le Macaron began franchising in 2012, and now has more than 50 locations across 11 states. In addition to its signature macaron, stores sell gelato, eclairs, napoleons, pies, cakes, croissants and fine chocolates, made with the finest French ingredients, as well as coffee, tea and more. As an industry leader with plenty of room to grow, Le Macaron plans to expand its national footprint through its commitment to authenticity and a willingness to adapt to evolving customer preferences.

With a degree in Hospitality Management from Ohio State University, Lisa Amundsen of Alpharetta had worked in the hotel business for over 20 years. Now, she has made the switch to restaurant management and is bringing two Le Macaron locations to the metro-Atlanta area, along with her husband Dave Amundsen.

Lisa had been with HelmsBriscoe for almost 16 years. They are a third party site-selection company, so she got to work with hoteliers and meeting planners every day. She is excited to use her connections in a new way. Lisa and Dave have lived in the Alpharetta area for over 15 years, where they now raise their two songs, ages 13 and 18. Lisa and Dave have volunteered any many school and charity events, in addition to attending their youngest son’s soccer tournaments.

When Dave was unexpectedly laid off from his job in corporate finance after more than 20 years, outplacement services brought him to a franchise consultant. Business ownership was something the husband-and-wife team had considered in the past, but franchising had never occurred to them. “The consultant approached me with four or five different ideas based on our experience and future goals and at the end of the day, Le Macaron shone brightly to us,” said Dave Amundsen. “We really liked what we heard when we talked to the franchisor and other franchisees.“
