Confédération Nationale de la Boulangerie-Pâtisserie Française (CNBPF) and Swile signed a partnership agreement in May, joining forces to offer benefits for bakeries in France. From May 15, the professional entities affiliated with the CNBPF benefit from a significant reduction in commissions, with a rate reserved for them.

This is a strong signal of support from one of the main issuers of meal vouchers, to the benefit of the artisan bakers, the CNBPF underlines. “Bakers and pastry chefs face daily challenges: rising raw material costs, pressure on margins, and difficult recruitment.  In this context, every lever counts. And meal vouchers are one of them: for many craftsmen, they are an essential asset allowing them to benefit from a regular clientele of employees, and they represent a significant part of their turnover,” the CNBPF explains.
