Salty Bagel has announced plans to open its sixth location in Brevard County, according to a statement from the company. The new spot will join existing locations in Titusville, Palm Bay, and Cocoa, marking the chain's latest expansion in the region. The company did not specify the exact location or timeline for the new store, but officials said it will be in a "high-traffic area" to serve more customers. "We’ve seen strong demand in Brevard, and this is a natural next step," said Salty Bagel CEO Sarah Mitchell in a press release. "Our team is excited to bring our menu to even more residents." The chain has already established five locations across the county since opening its first store in 2018. The new location could create up to 20 jobs, according to county economic development records. Local officials have welcomed the expansion, noting that Salty Bagel has become a fixture in communities like Melbourne and West Palm Beach. "They’ve been a good neighbor and a solid employer," said Brevard County Commissioner Lisa Brown. "This shows confidence in our economy." The company has not yet commented on potential sites, but previous locations have drawn crowds for its signature bagels, coffee, and grab-and-go options. With no immediate details on the new store’s opening date, residents are speculating about where it might land next. The expansion comes as Brevard’s population continues to grow, with the county adding over 50,000 residents since 2020, according to U.S. Census data.
