🎥 We can finally share this with you!
A few weeks ago, we had to keep a little secret when cameras arrived at Ganache…
We were incredibly proud to have been selected by Willoughby City Council as one of the local businesses featured in this year’s Support Local campaign, sharing the story of Ganache, our journey since taking over the business, and the people and community behind its success.
Last night, the finished video was officially revealed at the Support Local Showcase Night at The Concourse in Chatswood, surrounded by local business owners, community partners and Council and state representatives.
Vianney also had the privilege of joining the business owners’ panel on stage to talk about our journey… from bringing lessons from aviation into a the patisserie, to building a culture where mistakes become opportunities to learn, working with your best friend, supporting other local businesses, and accepting that none of us needs to be perfect to build something meaningful.
It was a very special moment to look back at how far Ganache has come in such a short time.
But perhaps the biggest message from last night was just how important strong local communities and strong local businesses are to each other.
We want to sincerely thank Willoughby City Council and everyone involved in the Support Local program. There is a big difference between simply talking about supporting small business and actively creating opportunities for businesses to be seen, connected, celebrated and heard and this initiative does exactly that.
We are incredibly grateful for the relationship we are building with Council and for the work they continue to do across the Willoughby business community.
And of course, none of our story would exist without our amazing team and the Castlecrag community who gave Vianney and Johann a chance when they took over Ganache and have supported, challenged and encouraged us ever since.
We may own Ganache on paper… but as we said last night, Castlecrag definitely owns a little piece of it emotionally ❤️
Now we can finally show you what was happening behind those cameras.
🎬 Here is our Support Local story.
Thank you, Castlecrag. And thank you, Willoughby City Council. 🥐❤️
