Quand tout le monde se bat pour entrer dans la grande distribution, qui représente pourtant près de 70% du marché, Le Chocolat des Français choisit délibérément le chemin inverse. Transformer une simple tablette en un objet cadeau et bâtir une marque rentable dans un marché de près de 4 milliards d'euros : c'est le pari de Paul-Henri Masson et de son associé, lancé avec seulement 15 000 €. Aujourd'hui, la marque vise près de 10 M€ de chiffre d'affaires. Comme vous l'aurez compris, Laurent Kretz reçoit Paul-Henri Masson, cofondateur, pour analyser ensemble les choix stratégiques qui ont permis à Le Chocolat des Français de se différencier.La conversation revient sur les décisions clés de la marque : le refus de la grande distribution, le positionnement cadeau, l'importance de l'illustration et du branding, et la stratégie omnicanale qui combine e‑commerce, boutiques, wholesale et travel retail. Au final, elle montre surtout comment un pari, pensé à contre-courant, peut devenir un modèle rentable et désirable. 00:00:00 - Introduction00:07:52 - Financement : rentabilité, lancement avec 15 k€, levées de fonds et modèle économique00:16:47 - Premiers sites web : vitrine Squarespace, fond d'écran Apple, puis e‑commerce PrestaShop00:19:23 - Panorama des canaux de distribution et CA par canal (wholesale, travel, corporate, hôtellerie, retail, web)00:24:25 - Apprentissage retail : rester humble, dupliquer un concept rentable, importance de l'animation00:35:06 - Le vrai enjeu wholesale : rester dans les rayons, rotation et relation avec les équipes de vente00:41:37 - Travel retail : comment entrer en aéroports, trains, avions (prospection, LinkedIn, système D)00:47:10 - Enjeux 2026 : refonte Shopify, expérience client & personnalisation, influence & artistes00:52:42 - Acquisition vs fidélisation, lisser la saisonnalité en e‑commerce00:58:01 - ConclusionEt quelques dernières infos à vous partager :Suivez Le Panier sur Instagram @lepanier.podcast !Inscrivez- vous à la newsletter sur lepanier.io pour cartonner en e-comm !Écoutez les épisodes sur Apple Podcasts, Spotify ou encore Podcast Addict Hébergé par Audiomeans.

I'm back sharing another case study with you featuring one of our Paper Camp alum, Taylor Carroll of The Stray Shop. Before we dive in, I wanted to remind you about the free workshop that I'm hosting on February 18th at 10:30am Pacific Time.

3 Manufacturing Red Flags That Can Destroy Your Apparel Brand If your manufacturer's quote feels too cheap or the turnaround time sounds unrealistically fast, this episode could save you tens of thousands of dollars. In this episode of the Business of Apparel Podcast, Rachel breaks down three critical manufacturing red flags every apparel brand owner must know before signing with a factory. These are the costly mistakes that quietly kill margins, compromise quality, and leave founders with zero leverage when production goes wrong. You'll learn how professional factories actually operate, why "perfect samples" don't guarantee perfect production, and how to protect yourself with the right agreements, tech packs, and ownership structures, before it's too late.

I help founders and CEOs of performance apparel brands: ✅ Build lean, profitable product lines ✅ Streamline operations for growth ✅ Replace overwhelm with executive clarity ✅ Create garments that fit bodies in motion   Whether you're just hitting $1M in revenue or trying to break through the $10M ceiling, my team joins you as an embedded operations and product partner—running fittings, line plans, tech packs, and vendor communications so you can get back to leading.   To connect with Rachel, you can join her LinkedIn community here: LinkedIn.

Have you been telling yourself you're "too old" to start (or restart) your jewelry business?  In this episode of the Jewelry Business Academy podcast, I'm sitting down with Cheryl D'Arezzo, founder of Cheryl Ann Jewelry, who's 67 and building a beautiful, thriving brand after decades of making jewelry quietly in the background.

If you've been waiting for the "right time," this conversation will remind you: your next chapter can be your boldest one yet.     What You Will Learn in this Episode: How "I'm too old" becomes a business ceiling and how to reframe it fast Why purpose and community are the two biggest accelerators for confidence and growth How to stop "making jewelry" and start building a real business with systems What it looks like to take messy action when tech and visibility feel intimidating   Topics Discussed: Starting (or restarting) a jewelry business later in life Identity, confidence, and taking up space online Building community and surrounding yourself with entrepreneurs Tech hurdles: websites, email marketing, Instagram Retreat breakthroughs + positioning your brand clearly Wholesale growth + getting into stores   __________________________   Ready to grow + scale your jewelry business?

Brian Bates and his wife Anne run Bear Creek Organic Farm in Petoskey, Michigan. A little over a decade after starting their farm, they are grossing over $1.5 million from their on-farm store- which is surprising considering that before COVID, their farm was mostly wholesale, whereas now most of their sales come from on-farm retail. In retrospect, it's easy to think the last decade was an uninterrupted period of growth; however in this interview, we'll talk about the bumps along the way and how they overcame them. We also talk about the big pivot that changed their farm from wholesale to retail, how they have used smart borrowing over the years to grow their business, and how they farm year-round and take direction from their customers to make sure they're providing what their customers want. Connect With Guest:Website: bearcreekorganicfarm.comInstagram: @bearcreekorganicfarm Huge thanks to our podcast sponsors as they make this podcast FREE to everyone with their generous support: Farmhand is the virtual assistant built for farmers—helping CSAs scale sales, run error-free fulfillment, and deliver 5-star service.

Discussions around central bank digital currencies typically begin with the intended use case. If the CBDC is for retail use, then all the subsequent discussions focus on retail, and the reverse is true for wholesale. The two are treated as separate discussions. Abbas Albasha, senior strategy consultant at Giesecke+Devrient joins Lewis McLellan, head of content at OMFIF's Digital Monetary Institute, to discuss why this approach is too restrictive, pointing out that a single CBDC system can be designed to meet both retail and wholesale needs flexibly without need for two separate systems.

ITPM Flash provides insight into what professional traders are thinking about in the markets RIGHT NOW!   Precious metals and AI may be dominating headlines, but this week's asymmetrical opportunity sits somewhere very different.   In this ITPM Flash, Anthony Iser looks at an unexpected corner of the market: US egg producers. Wholesale egg prices have fallen sharply, production has rebounded, and the sector has been hit with heavy de-ratings. But beneath the surface, not all egg businesses are exposed in the same way.   This episode contrasts a highly cyclical, price-taking commodity producer with a branded, premium growth business that is far less sensitive to wholesale price swings. A combination of falling egg prices, negative headlines, and a one-off margin issue has driven a sharp sell-off, pushing valuations to levels not seen in years — despite very little change to the underlying earnings outlook.   With results approaching, the market may be mispricing earnings resilience and longer-term structural growth. Anthony explains why this setup represents a non-tech, asymmetric opportunity, and outlines an options structure designed to capture the upcoming catalyst with an attractive risk-reward profile.

Why Sustainable Apparel Brands Fail (And How Wildhaven Wools Is Doing It Right) with Julia Billings What does it really take to build a sustainable apparel brand that lasts? In this episode of The Business of Apparel Podcast, Rachel sits down with Julia Billings, founder and CEO of Wildhaven Wool, to unpack the real story behind building a values-driven kids apparel brand from Alaska, without cutting corners, chasing trends, or underpricing the product. Julia shares how she turned a personal need into a profitable brand, why merino wool is one of the most misunderstood materials in fashion, and what most founders get wrong about sustainability, pricing, and growth. This is an unfiltered conversation about long timelines, tough decisions, pricing with confidence, and why loving your idea is non-negotiable if you want to survive entrepreneurship. If you're building (or thinking about building) an apparel brand, and want to do it ethically, profitably, and with intention, this episode is required listening.

An Alaskan mom who believes deeply in the importance of raising kids in connection with nature, Julia started Wildhaven to make warm layers that could keep up with her rowdy kids all-day outdoor play, without harming the planet and its inhabitants in the process. Since starting her brand in 2022, Julia has grown Wildhaven from a home sewing operation to US-based commercial manufacturing and a business that pays her a paycheck and employs other women in her rural community. In addition, Wildhaven has helped thousands of customers outfit their kids in 100% natural ethical merino and live the core belief that all kids deserve a childhood spent outside and wild.   Website: https://wildhavenwools.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wildhavenwools/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/wildhavenwools Watch more of The Business of Apparel Podcast episodes: Wholesale 101: https://youtu.be/lpezH1YwCyE Use AI in Your Apparel Brand: https://youtu.be/Dn9tjPNmfaw  Grow A 7-Figure Apparel Business: https://youtu.be/rpQYDyo5Rao We can't wait to hear what you think of this episode!

Greg Jackson, founder and CEO of energy giant Octopus Energy, is perhaps one of Britain's most innovative CEOs.In 2021, the British energy market collapsed. Wholesale gas prices surged six-fold, thirty suppliers went under in months, while millions of families faced impossible bills.Rather than sticking his head in the sand, Greg went public, putting his own credibility on the line to explain why prices were rising. He cut his own salary to minimum wage, provided £150 million in bill relief packages, and became the face of the energy crisis when everyone told him not to.The result? Octopus became the UK's largest energy supplier during the worst energy crisis in a generation, now valued at over £7 billion.Greg is an entrepreneur who's built multiple businesses by doing exactly what everyone else refuses to do – a true lesson in why fortune really does favour the brave.LESSONS YOU'LL LEARN:Character matters more than ability.When you see something clearly, don't hesitate.Fortune favors the brave, zig when others zag!Being smart isn't enough.

Electricity prices are rising across New York, and understanding what drives those costs has never been more important. In this Power Trends podcast, NYISO Vice President of Market Structures Shaun Johnson breaks down the factors shaping today's electricity supply charges and explains how wholesale markets produce the most cost-efficient solutions to meet consumer demand. Wholesale electricity supply costs have been climbing as natural gas prices — New York's primary fuel for electricity — have nearly doubled in the past year. Most of what customers pay goes toward utility delivery charges, taxes, and other non-supply components. Electricity bills can be confusing, but Johnson breaks down the two primary charges: The supply cost makes up approximately one third of your bill. The other two thirds are the retail rates your utility company charges plus taxes and fees.The physical composition of the gas pipeline infrastructure factors into retail delivery costs as well. Because New York and New England sit at the tail end of a pipeline network that originates in the Colorado Rockies and the Gulf Coast, delivery costs to northeastern states are among the highest in the nation.As the state moves toward greater electrification and new large loads emerge, demand is expected to keep growing. At the same time, aging generation and long lead times for new resources are tightening supply. These realities put upward pressure on prices too.“Our market philosophy has always been sort of simple,” Johnson notes, “how do we keep the lights on at the lowest cost via competition.”Check out the complete podcast to explore how wholesale markets function, what's driving today's costs, and how NYISO works to maintain grid reliability at the lowest cost — even when fuel prices surge.More resourcesPlease visit our new winter pricing resource page to explain what's behind rising costs.Learn More Follow us on X/Twitter @NewYorkISO, LinkedIn @NYISO, Bluesky @nyiso.com Read our blogs and watch our videos

In this episode, we're joined by analyst Francois Sonneville and relationship manager Jonathan Magel to discuss the biggest news stories from the past 30 days, including: The US issues new dietary guidelines for alcohol consumption. Will it impact consumption or regulatory pressure? The CEO of Heineken will be stepping down later this year. Virtually every major alcohol business has seen executive turnover in the last 18 months. Does this signal a shift in our expectations for a quick return to growth or a resignation that the problems are more structural?  Recent reports suggest Republic National Distributing Company, the second-largest wine and spirits wholesaler in the US, will sell operations in seven states to Reyes Holdings, famously not a wine and spirits distributor. Could this signal an end or just the beginning of upheaval in the US wholesaler landscape?  The advent of GLP-1s in pill form and the lower pricing will inevitably lead to higher uptake. Should beverage companies have a "GLP-1 strategy"?  Want to sign up for our written research?

Your Apparel Brand Is NOT For Everyone! Niche Down to Grow and Build Customer Loyalty In this episode of The Business of Apparel podcast, Rachel discusses why your apparel brand cannot be for everyone. Learn the critical strategy of niching down to a specific target market, which is essential for launching, growing, and scaling your business. Rachel explains that trying to create a product for everyone leads to making products for no one, highlighting the importance of focusing on one perfect target segment. She uses compelling examples, from nudist colonies to different types of runners, to illustrate how varied customer needs are. Discover how defining a clear customer avatar, like 'Kara', can guide all your business decisions, from product development to marketing, ensuring you build brand loyalty through superior fit and comfort. This approach helps attract new customer segments organically and build a profitable, fulfilling brand that stands the test of time.

Wholesaling and buy-and-hold are not the same business—so why do so many investors track them the same way? In this episode, I break down how money actually flows differently between wholesaling, fix-and-flip, and buy-and-hold strategies, and why lumping everything into one set of numbers can quietly destroy your profits.I walk through real examples of investors unknowingly using rental cash flow to prop up losing wholesale or flip operations, the legal and financial risks of mixing strategies, and exactly what you should be tracking for each model. If you're using wholesaling as your cash engine and buy-and-hold as your long-term wealth play, this episode will help you stop guessing and start making intentional decisions with your money.Timeline Highlights:[0:00] Why wholesaling and buy-and-hold should never be tracked the same way[1:21] The danger of lumping multiple strategies into one set of financials[1:51] The legal and liability risks of mixing wholesale and rental operations[2:56] Wholesale as a cash machine vs. buy-and-hold as a wealth builder[3:35] A real example of rentals silently covering wholesale losses[4:42] The three simplest numbers every strategy must track[5:21] Why buy-and-hold profits don't always match bank balances[6:06] How Profit First brings clarity to both strategies[7:35] What wholesalers must track to avoid reinvesting everything[8:51] Marketing ROI vs. equity growth—what matters for each strategy[10:30] Using strategy-specific tracking to escape the rat raceKey TakeawaysWholesaling and buy-and-hold are fundamentally different businesses with different money flows.Combining multiple strategies into one financial view creates blind spots and risk.Wholesaling is primarily a cash and marketing business, not a wealth strategy.Buy-and-hold success depends on true cash flow, debt service, and equity growth.Rentals can silently subsidize losing wholesale or flip operations if not tracked separately.Profit First helps clarify what you make, spend, and keep in each strategy.Tracking the right numbers allows each strategy to stand on its own financially.Links & ResourcesBook a free discovery call and get help structuring your numbers by strategy: profitrei.comClosing:Thanks for spending time with me today.
