Three years after his departure, the name of Paul Bocuse radiates from Lyon to Singapore, passing through La Réunion, Peru, South Korea, Guatemala, China, Russia, Finland and Japan. There, the campus trains highly selected students for the management of hotel trades, Food Services and culinary arts, showcasing the Made in France expertise and know-how.

The highest standards on a daily basis

Amongst a wide array of projects, a hotel and restaurant pole will be implanted within the walls of the château de la Roseraie close by. The purpose is to welcome an additional 1 000 students, in 8 000 m², with 22 management classrooms, an amphitheater with 250 places, a restaurant and a co-working space focusing on start-ups. A certain idea of excellence that would undoubtedly have seduced « Monsieur Paul ».
