The Perfect Merger: Starbucks and Panera Bread

Posted in All by Ronald Lewis

I frequent Panera Bread and Starbucks several times a month. Both have friendly staff, a familiar brand and premium offerings.

However, I often fantasize about what they’d be like — together. StarPanera? PaneraBucks? Starbucks? Okay, who cares about names. What any consumer cares about is great service, quality and a great dining experience. These guys exceed well at both — everyday!

Wouldn’t it be great to have your favorite Starbucks coffee along with a delicious turkey sandwich and whole grain baguette? Imagine a one-stop shop of choices for great meals, beverages, snacks and desserts. Both provide comfortable environments to enjoy an evening with the family, a colleague — well, anyone, really.

I think Panera and Starbucks have a complimentary customer base, so why not combine the “best of the best” into a new experience that customers of both will enjoy? What do you think?

    Its weird that you brought that up because my class is doing a project on what would happen if those two cpmpanies cpme together. All we have seen so far is a profit on both the sides, considering the fact that both the companies are experiencing hard times because how high their products are.
