Einstein Bros. Bagels is expanding nationally with franchises and strongly considering West Virginia, according to Kevin Kruse, vice president of franchise development for the Einstein Noah Restaurant Group.

Kruse said Einstein Bros. already has company stores in places like Pittsburgh and Columbus and licensed stores in Dayton and Lexington.

“We’d love to get to West Virginia,” he said.

Kruse said the company has spoken to Huntington area prospects, but nothing is concrete.

“If we can sign someone, something could be open this year,” he said.

Einstein Bros. only signs multiple-unit agreements, so anyone interested must be willing to have three franchise locations, Kruse said. He said typically those are built one each year.
