CaliBagels, Thomas’ Partner to Launch Deli Style Bagel Chips
New snack line will bring Thomas’ signature bagel flavors into the chip aisle, with thicker-sliced, baked chips designed to deliver familiar taste and texture in a convenient format

CaliBagels Inc. announced an exclusive licensing agreement with Thomas', the iconic breakfast bread brand owned by Bimbo Bakeries USA, to develop, manufacture and distribute Thomas' branded Deli Style Bagel Chips across the United States.
Under the terms of the partnership, CaliBagels will bring Thomas' trusted name and signature bagel flavor profiles to the snack aisle in 2026 with a lineup of bold, crispy bagel chips. The initial flavor offerings will reflect the most loved flavors in Thomas' bagel and breakfast bread portfolio.
Thomas' has been a staple of American breakfast tables for more than 140 years. Best known for its iconic English Muffins, the brand also leads the US market in grocery store bagel sales, holding a top position in the refrigerated and pre-packaged bagel category across most major grocery chains.
With unmatched brand recognition and consumer loyalty, Thomas' brings scale and credibility to the bagel chip segment—a category that continues to grow as consumers seek more flavorful and satisfying snack options. By pairing CaliBagels' manufacturing expertise and innovation with Thomas' national footprint and reputation, the partnership is positioned to drive incremental growth at retail and create a new standard in the premium snack category.
The launch of Thomas' Deli Style Bagel Chips builds on the brand's strong breakfast identity while expanding its presence into the snack and deli aisles. Sliced thicker and baked for crispiness, the chips deliver a texture and taste that mirrors Thomas' bagels—offering familiar flavor, quality and comfort in a new, convenient format.
The chips will be distributed nationally through grocery, mass retail and specialty channels beginning in 2026, with expanded flavor innovations and formats expected later in the year.
