Founded in 2015, Conception Gourmande has expanded its service offering to specialize in the management of institutional cafeterias, such as those in residences for the elderly.

For its owner, Caroline Landry, one thing is clear: building and maintaining sustainable business relationships that benefit everyone—producers, suppliers, and workers alike—is essential. Surrounded by her talented teams, she therefore relies on local and consistent sourcing to provide institutional clients with high-quality local foods and recipes from home.

To support this new service offering, Caroline needed to increase the working capital of Conception Gourmande. The loan granted by AMCGÎM allowed her to cover operating expenses during the first month, including payroll and the purchase of food inventory.

“With Accès Microcrédit, I received not only financial support, but also a solid boost in personal and professional confidence. Thanks to the trust they placed in my business, I truly felt seen, understood, and recognized as a real player—an entrepreneur.”
