PROFILE |
 |
Panera Bread Company still punches down a lot of dough. Formerly Au Bon Pain, Panera Bread (the name is Latin for "time for bread") owns, operates, or franchises about 285 of its eponymous bakery cafes in 29 states. (Its units near St. Louis do business as Saint Louis Bread.) Mostly located in suburban shopping malls, the restaurants offer patrons a variety of freshly baked sourdough and European breads and other baked goods, as well as a menu of salads, soups, sandwiches, and premium coffee. Panera Bread has commitments to open about 560 new franchises. The company sold its upscale Au Bon Pain unit, which had more than 260 mostly urban locations, in 1999.
