French hotels group Accor SA (AC.FR) would like to keep working with its catering business Lenotre once it is sold, Chief Executive Denis Hennequin said Monday.

Hennequin said he would choose pillows over macarons--pastries produced by Lenotre--when it comes to investments. However, the company would like to continue working with the caterer, which supplies food for the company's high-end hotels, he added.

Accor has shed assets over the years in order to focus resources on the hotels business, most notably its vouchers division, which is now a separately listed company called Edenred (EDEN.FR).

Accor announced plans to sell Lenotre in April.
