Barry Bagels signed a 20-store development agreement for the state of Iowa. The deal marks Barry Bagels' official entry into the state.
The Midwest bagel and deli brand is known for its traditional boiled-and-baked bagels and made-to-order sandwiches.
Founded in 1972 by Barry Greenblatt, Barry Bagels has grown from a single neighborhood bagel shop in Sylvania, Ohio, into a well-known regional brand with franchise partners across multiple states. Recent multi-unit development agreements in Texas and Iowa will bring the brand's total number of open, under construction and signed locations under development to a total of 104 nationwide.
