The Florida-based bagel chain, Jeff’s Bagel Run, is set to grow its footprint across the US through continuing expansion.
Jeff’s Bagel Run, known for handcrafted bagels, freshly whipped spreads and craft coffee, has added four new stores with three franchisees to its pipeline, bringing the number of stores open or in development to 90. The chain, which was founded in 2019, currently operates 12 locations: eight in Florida, two in North Carolina, one in Georgia and one in Texas.
Through the new agreements, Jeff’s Bagel Run will expand its footprint in three fast-growing states. John Fink will open the brand’s first store in Knoxville, Tennessee, while Kristin Francisco will open a new store in the beachside community of Melbourne, Florida. Dave Weinberg is expanding Jeff’s Bagel Run into Colorado Springs, Colorado with two new stores.
“We are honoured to welcome John, Kristin and Dave to the Jeff’s Bagel Run family,” said Justin Wetherill, Co-Founder of electronics repair chain uBreakifix who joined Jeff’s Bagel Run as CEO last year. “Each of these franchisees brings unique expertise and passion to their communities and we look forward to seeing how they elevate the Jeff’s Bagel Run experience for their customers. This is an exciting time for our brand as we continue to expand into new markets and bring our hand-crafted bagels to more people across the country.”
