Appreciating Beth's knowledge of bagel formulas, business background, and years of practicing law, Frank Mauro, a bagel industry veteran, encouraged Beth to become a bagel business consultant. In 2013, Beth and Frank created BYOB BAGELS, a bagel business consulting company. Since that time, Beth and Frank* have been helping individual entrepreneurs, across the United States and around the world, build independent bagel businesses. Their love of all things bagels continues with the creation of Bagel-ish.*Sadly Frank passed away in November 2023, and was not able to see Bagel-ish come to fruition.Bagel-ish serves as the physical training location for BYOB BAGELS.
