Panera Bread was started by the then-Au Bon Pain-owned Saint Louis Bread Co. in December 1997. This name was given to locations slated to open in markets further out than the Midwest, and uses a modified version of the Saint Louis Bread logo. As the chain has expanded, the Panera name has completely replaced the other in every market besides the St. Louis Metro area.
