Cora Tsouflidou

Today Cora is a beloved Canadian brand, its network boasts more than 130 franchise locations across the country, and the company continues to expand. Throughout the years, Cora Tsoudflidou has maintained her customers-first approach and her commitment, above all, to community—the touchstones of her business. She proudly mentors a group of proteges, speaks often to entrepreneurial audiences, and is a much sought-after business speaker. In 1998, she created The Cora Foundation, for children in need. The Foundations' fundraising and other special events are created by employees and franchise owners: "One can only multiply love," she says, "never divide it."

In 2013, Cora was awarded the Honorary Presidency of the 15th edition of the Québec Entrepreneurship Contest, which she shares with Martin Thibault.
