BB&T presents Business Before Hours hosted by Panera Bread
Date: Tuesday, May 15th 2012
Time: 8:00am to 9:00am
Description:
Please join us for May's Business Before Hours event! Complimentary baked goods, coffee and beverages will be served. Our host Sponsor is Panera Bread. Panera Bread would like to invite you on Tuesday May 15th to sample their freshly baked cinnamon crunch bagels, fresh coffee, and other treats from their bakery, to start off your morning. We will be socializing on the patio located at the front of their cafe.
Panera Bread opened in May of 2004 in Asheville. They are a bakery cafe where all bagels, pastries, and sandwich breads are baked fresh daily. Their bagels and breads are never frozen and they receive a delivery of freshly mixed and rolled dough daily and their bakers bake every night. Also, all of their baked goods are donated to local charities each night so that they can start with fresh product each morning.
With the single goal of making great bread broadly available to consumers across America, Panera Bread freshly bakes more bread each day than any bakery-cafe concept in the country. Every day, at every location, trained bakers handcraft and bake each loaf from scratch, using all-natural ingredients to ensure the highest quality breads.
Panera Bread understands that great, freshly baked bread makes great meals - including made-to-order sandwiches, tossed-to-order salads and soup served in bread bowls. Their menu items, which start with their all-natural, preservative-free breads, feature only the freshest, highest quality ingredients.
