Einstein Bros. joins the national chain mix

September 4th, 2007 by Andre Natta · 9 Comments

Einstein Bros. LogoAdd Einstein Bros. Bagels to the list of national chains that have announced plans to put locations in Birmingham. It was announced as part of the company’s plan to offer franchising opportunities in seven states, the Birmingham Business Journal shared the news last week. They join Dunkin Donuts (story) and Baskin Robbins (story) in terms of recent announcements, not to mention several other chains that have opened in recent months throughout our metro area. This map shows the states being targeted by the Lakewood, CO-based company. Thanks to Megabeth for pointing it out.

This news leads us to a question: What other retail chains would you like to see come to Birmingham? (question edited to clarify meaning)

    I’d like to see Crate & Barrel and Nordstrom here. Not that I’d actually buy much there. I just want the option. :)
