About

Pastreez was started in 2017 when Yami and Anthony, two French chefs trained at le Cordon Bleu, moved to Southern California. They first started by selling their macarons in local farmer markets, testing how their product is received by consumers and if it matches the demand locally.

In September 2017, they started selling online, building a passionate list of consumers. Today, Pastreez sells fresh macarons and crepes across the United States.

When marketing to different consumers, it's crucial to understand that different shoppers prefer different channels to keep in touch with a brand. Pastreez ensures that they cater to these different shoppers by enabling multiple channels— email, text, and web push notifications— to successfully capture and communicate with their different shoppers.

Email, SMS, and web push complement each other very well. It's about being able to contact every one and having all these channels helps us access all our audience.
