Next year, Midland and Mt. Pleasant will become home to the first Panera Bread restaurants in the Great Lakes Bay Region, according to a report from the Midland Daily News. Brent Skaggs, the owner of two Fazoli's restaurants in Midland and Mt. Pleasant, and the owner of Harvey's restaurants in Bay and Saginaw County, told the News he is not renewing his franchise options with Fazoli's but opting to bring in Panera Bread franchises instead. The report said the restaurants are slated to open in June. Currently, the nearest Panera Bread location to the Great Lakes Bay Region is in Grand Blanc. There are also Panera locations in Fenton, Okemos and Lansing. Panera Bread serves sandwiches, soups, salads and a variety of baked goods including bagels and pastries.
