Company Name: BIZU Patisserie Companys Type of Operation: Food Manufacturing/ Catering Services History: BIZU was coined

from the French word "Bisous". Translated in English, the word means kiss. Beso-beso, the Filipino term for kissing, is one of the most endearing and enduring qualities of Filipinos. We kiss one another to show gratitude, happiness, excitement, love and affection. A kiss inspires. And this inspiration begets energy. This energy, in turn, begets creativity. BIZU was born out of this inspiration. From this inspiration came the unique selection of cakes and pastries that were truly made to inspire. It all began with a dream to have an authentic Parisian Patisserie where the finest French pastries and European breads can be savored right in the Philippines. With much training and patience, our Filipino chefs have learned the magical art of the French Patisserie. Indeed, ensuring the most flavorful and artful products are brought to your homes is a labor of love. From a kiosk/caf at the third floor of Glorietta 4 that started operations in 2001 now has three more outlets in Greenbelt 2, Alabang Towncenter and at The Promenade inside Greenhills Shopping Center. The menu includes all day breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea and dinner items. Soon after, Bizu Private Caterer was launched so that customers can take Bizu to their homes. Customers are not to leave without the chewy pastel-colored Macarons de Paris that Bizu Patisserie is known for. At Bizu, food is at the heart of everything we do- be it our pastries or bistro fare. The love for fresh food is celebrated, where everyday eating makes for what we call part of the niceties of good living.
