SUBWAY

 

Founded in 1965, the SUBWAY® restaurant chain has been offering entrepreneurs a chance to build and succeed in their own business. The chain's achievements in the sandwich segment of the fast-food industry have established it as one of the world's most successful franchising models.

With more than 31,000 locations in 90 countries, all Subway restaurants are individually owned and operated by independent franchisees who pride themselves on being active members of the communities in which they live, work and serve.

As the Subway chain continues to expand and adapt to new challenges, it cannot simply rest on its laurels and has also become a leader in non-traditional development. Placing Subway restaurants in such as locations at airports, convenience stores, college campuses, hospitals, military bases and retail stores, the chain has been able to duplicate the Subway experience for consumers in areas where the competition often finds too small or impractical to set up shop.

The company prides itself on having a strong and highly recognizable brand identity with low start up costs and an efficient, well-structured program that includes training and guidance in all areas of operation. Little to no experience is necessary, space requirements are flexible and equipment needs are minimal. Except for the daily baking of bread, no cooking is involved.

Setting its sights at becoming the number one fast-food chain in every market it serves, the Subway chain is firmly committed to excellence for its customers—in its restaurants, products, franchisees, and its corporate values.

And the success of the Subway brand has not gone unnoticed. In January of 2009, Entrepreneur magazine once again chose Subway as the number one franchise opportunity, marking the 16th time in 22 years that this prestigious honor has been awarded to the popular restaurant chain.
