1671 Cremerie de Paris became a Telecom Company
which has something in common with what Amazon is doing today,
shipping parcels ...
Moving to the Versailles castle the Villeroy family
sold the house to Leon Pajot et Louis Rouille,
two entrepreneurs.
They started a company called La Poste transporting letters and parcels.
At the time there were no cars, no computer, no phones.
They would not have been able to handle all the parcels Amazon sends
around the world today ...
Pajot & Rouille used horses ...
Post horses were leaving from the old gate you see in the videos
to carry mail to post relais or postal palaces in cities like
Venice, Rome, Frankurt, Brussels.
Pajot & Rouille had about 900 post relais, so that horses could rest
every 30 miles. They also exchanged mail with
the Thurn & Taxis, another family of postal entrepreneurs.
Spirit of Telecom & of Innovation stayed in our walls ...
1986 Cremerie de Paris -
with the help of Thurn & Taxis. -
started as a Sony Phone Boutique.
1995 Cremerie de Paris turned into the fist Internet Cafe in Paris.
At the time French Hotels were not yet connected,
American travelers were the first to come.
Most visitors were very young
and Cremerie de Paris did not know who they were
or who they were going to become.
Maybe they did not know it themselves ...
In the meantime they have
created world famous brands
that now return to
"their old Cybercafe", Cremerie de Paris No1
to set up Pop Up Store Expos.
1995 was also the year Amazon was invented by Jeff Bezos

The cafe in the early moring without a Pop Up event.
Back in 1960 the designer Coco Chanel used to come to the cafe
in the middle of the night when she could not sleep.
As the former Paris Les Halles foodmarked operated during the night
there was always something interesting to see.
