Rise Harvest, the Utah-based multi-brand franchise holding company, has signed a lease to open its first Jeff’s Bagel Run at 744 W Blue Vista Ln in the View 72 shopping center in Midvale, Utah. The location is expected to open by the end of 2026 and will be the first Jeff’s Bagel Run operating in the state of Utah. RiseHarvest JBR Midvale PressRe…
Jeff’s Bagel Run is known for its scratch-made hot bagels, freshly whipped spreads, and craft beverages, with every bagel made fresh in-shop daily. The Midvale location will bring 20 to 30 new jobs to the community, spanning full-time and part-time positions across all levels of restaurant operations.
The opening follows Rise Harvest’s seven-unit area development agreement with Jeff’s Bagel Run, which grants the company exclusive development rights across Salt Lake, Davis, and Weber counties. Rise Harvest intends to develop a minimum of 15 Jeff’s Bagel Run locations across the territory.
“Jeff’s Bagel Run fills a real gap in the Utah market,” said Jacob Webb, Founder and CEO of Rise Harvest. “There’s nothing else like it here. Our bagels are made from scratch every single day, right in the shop. We’ve been building toward this opening for some time, and Midvale is the right place to introduce the brand to Utah.”
“Opening a first location in a new market is one of the most operationally demanding things a franchise company does,” said April Miller, Chief Operating Officer of Rise Harvest. “Our team has put in the preparation to execute this well and deliver a great guest experience right out of the gate. We are proud to bring something new to this community.”
Rise Harvest currently operates 28 locations across Marco’s Pizza, Tropical Smoothie Cafe, and Jeff’s Bagel Run, with 46 franchise agreements signed and additional units in active development across the Mountain West.
