He also owns several restaurants (the “Fat Olicard Burger” chain) in Paris, a Football Team (the “La Rochelle Angels”), has launched his own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderolicard - France), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Fabien) and a fashion line called “Fabien Olicard Seduction”.
