Franchisor: Knead A Bagel

Knead a Bagel brings real New York-style bagels to Australian communities. Hand-crafted. Traditionally boiled. Baked fresh every day.

Since 2019, we've been crafting authentic New York-style bagels for the Australian market - hand-crafted, traditionally boiled, and baked fresh. What started as a passion for getting the recipe just right has grown into a thriving bakery concept with strong demand across retail stores, catering, wholesale supply, and farmers' markets.

Now, as we expand across Victoria and beyond, we're inviting like-minded franchise partners to join us and share exceptional bagels with their communities and build a business they can be proud of.

Knead a Bagel: Built on Craft, Community & Care

Knead a Bagel isn't just about bagels; it's about doing things properly.

Our reputation has been built on quality ingredients, consistency, and the unmistakable aroma of freshly baked bagels that draws customers through the door. We focus on a simple, refined menu to deliver strong margins while keeping operations manageable and efficient.

Behind the scenes, the brand is led by a hospitality professional with over 35 years of experience in the food industry. Every part of the franchise model has been designed to deliver strong returns, not just financially, but in terms of time and lifestyle. No late-night trading. No overwhelming menus. Just a focused, morning-driven business with real growth potential.
