We Spent $250K To Open A NYC Bakery—Now It Brings In $50 Million A Year

What is this, marketing for rich people?

💚

zionists

By overcharging customers

What an excellent idea! Really shows that if you have a differentiated offering, you can break into any market despite how saturated it may be

the bs is just silly

I loved it when i first stumbled into it in washington d.c.!

17 $ for a sandwich? I'm from Europe and haven't been to the US for a long time. Just curious are these prices common now?

$45 for 8 cookies is INSANE

I went there once and saw the prices and left.  $10 for a cookie and a cup of coffee ? +tax+tip.
did you notice the tuna sandwich for $17 ?

Ooh la laa bisous 💋 ❤❤❤ 🇫🇷

Only in America!!!!

The headline is quite misleading.

Must be awesome to be rich and with rich friends who invest millions in you, truly started from the bottom

Love this! Wonderful couple, great business idea

Very nice

$17 for a tuna sandwich??? No thanks!

Criticism aside I really do like the food and coffee here lol.

I love Maman! The chocolate chip cookies are delectable. I love that they even sell the raw cookie dough so you can make them at home.🙌🏽

I’ve never been to Maman, after hearing the story I want to go.

I do miss Maison Kaiser bakery. (Shown in your early montage)

Wow, from $250K to $50M! 🚀 This is the dream! What's that 'little something more' for you guys that made Maman stand out?

And if you vote for the Kamala Machine you will pay tax on the unrealized gains…. Bye business

$17 for a tuna sandwich

I think I'm going to stop watching this channel as their titles are often misleading / click baity.

and i thought i was supporting a local coffee shop

No laptops… who made you god!?

Visited their cafe in Downtown Brooklyn. Interesting design but the food and drinks did not impress, nothing special. For that price, you can get more quality and delicious food.

Misleading: east coast and Canada NOT NewYork .
False news.
New York is a 🐀 place.

Great job!

the more i watch these, i notice that they got their starts 2008-2012. General economy rekt by the GFC, but the bottom of the next entrepreneurial bubble

« Lot of hard work and dedication » with an annoying vocal fry.

2min later « hey uncle Bob, we need 2.5M »

Always some rich relative behind it all... Even if they say they did it themselves. And if it's not apparent from the video, eventually it comes out. Either some business partner speaks out or a relative or acquaintance.. and you're lucky if the success story is not a fraud where nothing is as it seems. Take these stories with a grain of salt...

this is where Starbucks got away from... too bad it would be too hot in TX to open something like this

I apologize for my comment but just by looking at their puff pastries, I can tell they are reeeaaaally not good

NOW they are thriving, which is great. A lot of these millions are coming from franchises and/or investors I believe? I don't know. But, honestly, I have a gut feeling that in a few years it will be one more failed business, with only a few stores open or maybe only the few main ones. And yes, I bet they taste great, the place looks great, service also, but it's not too difficult to exist a next place as amazing, and appealing as something new for customers. I'm saying this because this is what I see with many great places similar to this one before. I don't know how to keep being profitable in this business, it always looks like a "make your millions and go away" kind of thing.

Maman is my FAVE coffee place in NYC💙🤍 Would love a few more dairy-free/ vegan chocolate pastry options

I started watching this report and continued until the point when they showed how much they charged for items in the menu. I went from admiration to despicable. Yes, you created a business and then I see your crazy prices.

Maman means Mother in Farsi.
I wouldn't be surprised if Elisa would be half-Iranian. She does look Iranian and Elisa is also used as a girl name in Iran too.

Love their beautiful story!!! Congratulations 🎊

are they making profits or no?

2 millions in the first year is amazing.

Basically catering to the wealthy and bottom 80% of Americans are poop

So tired of stories leading with revenues. Tell me about the PROFITS. With 34 stores, lots of employees, real estate and other overhead, it’s clear they aren’t taking home $50 million a year.

I love that they expanded in Covid. People with vision and passion can always thrive. And I want to try a cookie. 🍪✨

So smart and inspired. And Canadian! 🇨🇦✨💖

Tuna sandwich for $17????!!! WTF

Fascinating how their bodylanguage and absence of chemistry is at the totally opposite of the business successstory being told...?!
