About Fournil

Our mission

Running a bakery or pâtisserie means juggling production, stock, suppliers, the cash register, margins and accounting. Often with a spreadsheet, a notebook and two or three apps that don't talk to each other.

Fournil brings everything into one tool: recipe sheets, stock and supplier management, sales tracking, cash register discrepancy control and a real-time dashboard. Accessible from any device, designed for the daily life of artisan bakers.

Our mission is simple: save you time on management so you can focus on your craft.

The team

Fournil is built by Mathieu Piton, a web developer based in France. His wife is a pastry chef who opened her own pâtisserie in Madagascar.

She's the first user — and the most demanding one. Her shop serves as a permanent testing ground: every feature is tested in the real-world conditions of a working pâtisserie.

Our story

It all started with a concrete problem: how do you manage a pâtisserie in Madagascar from France?

When his wife opened her shop, Mathieu looked for a complete tool to track the business remotely — accounting, stock, sales, recipes, suppliers. He couldn't find anything that covered all these needs for an artisan.

So he built it. First for her. Then, realising that very few bakeries and pâtisseries have a truly adapted management tool, he decided to open Fournil to other artisans.

Fournil is currently in beta. No external users yet, but a product forged through the daily use of a real pâtisserie. And that's exactly how we want to keep building it: as close to the ground as possible.
