Dissatisfied with the options available, they decided to take matters into their own hands. In 2019, when Jeff faced a layoff, Danielle saw an opportunity to turn their shared love of bagels into something more. With Jeff as the baker and Danielle as the taste tester, they embarked on a journey to perfect the art of bagel making. Amidst the challenges of the pandemic, Jeff initiated what would become known as the "bagel run" - personally delivering freshly baked "Always boiled, never toasted" bagels door-to-door to friends, neighbors, and local businesses. The response was overwhelming, with demand quickly outpacing supply. Fueled by the enthusiasm of their community, Jeff's Bagel Run evolved from a humble home kitchen operation to a thriving business. The success of the "bagel run" paved the way for Jeff and Danielle to expand their reach, selling their delectable bagels at local markets and events. Finally, in June 2021, they realized their dream of opening the first Jeff's Bagel Run brick-and-mortar location in Ocoee, Florida. With Danielle leaving her corporate job to join Jeff "full bagel," the Perera family poured their hearts and souls into creating a warm, inviting space where customers can experience the joy of freshly baked bagels. #J-18808-Ljbffr
