Lender’s Bagels Celebrates 95th Anniversary with Relaunch of Iconic Brand
Lender’s Bagels, the iconic food brand that transformed the bagel industry with the invention of the frozen bagel, is celebrating its 95th year in business. The brand was founded by Polish immigrant Harry Lender who introduced America to his bagels in 1927 and went on to grow his small, family-owned business into one of the country’s best loved food brands.
With help from his three sons – Sam, Murray and Marvin – Harry grew Lender’s Bagels into a thriving local business which sold its signature, crispy on the outside yet chewy on the inside bagels to individuals and the local bakeries, delis and restaurants in the New Haven area.
