that many SUBWAY® customers
have become franchise owners
simply because they believe in the
product.
The SUBWAY® business goal is
to be the #1 sandwich store chain in
both consumer ranking and location
count in every market it serves.
In most years, about 70% of new
franchises are purchased by existing
owners.
Great food
SUBWAY® Sandwich Artists™ begin
making customers’ sandwiches on a
varied selection of daily baked
gourmet breads. With the option of
many ingredients, the sandwiches
are customised with an array of
meats, cheeses, vegetables, and
lastly topped off with exclusively
formulated sauces.
In addition, customers have the
option of having their sandwiches
toasted.
Products you will be proud to serve
The SUBWAY® franchise offers your
customers many great options to eat
a fresh meal, fast.
Think about your customer base and
all the potential consumers who
patronise your business. Wouldn’t
the quality of the SUBWAY® products
appeal to those consumers?

look of natural building materials brick, wood, stone - into the stores

Eat Fresh Live Green
The SUBWAY® chain constantly
strives to make SUBWAY® stores
and operational procedures more
environmentally and socially
responsible. This is achieved by
conducting business in a way that
creates profit for franchisees, whilst
minimising the impact the business
has on the environment, and to
improve the lives of SUBWAY®
customers, employees, franchisees,
vendors and global communities.
Did you know . . .
The SUBWAY® company works on
sustainable initiatives to improve the
entire world-wide organisation with a
focus on energy efficiency, water and
resource conservation, and waste
reduction, as well as continuing to
focus on food quality and food safety.
Some examples of our achievements
to date include:
Reducing the amount of cardboard
used to pack our products. By filling
each package with more product, we
will save over 400 tonnes of
cardboard every year! Not only that,
we will use fewer trucks to transport
the same volume of product.
We have introduced more energy
efficient equipment. A number of our
stores across the UK and Ireland
now have equipment which uses
hydrocarbon as a refrigerant, which
saves up to 13% more energy than
existing products.
SUBWAY® headquarters continues
to work with suppliers to improve the
nutritional content of the food served.
Since June 2009, all artificial trans
fats from core products have been
eliminated and in the UK and Ireland,
we have reduced the salt content
across all products by an average of
33%. Our tea and coffee is also
Rainforest Alliance certified!

Franchise Capital Requirements
GENERAL BREAKDOWN FOR:
The SUBWAY franchise has some of the
lowest start-up costs in the industry. Your
complete investment will depend on your
location, size, and the extent of renovations
required. There are traditional and nontraditional locations for SUBWAY® franchises. A
traditional store is one you see in a shopping
centre or on the street corner. A non-traditional
store is a store located in an airport, hospital,
service station, college, bus terminal, or other
sites associated with another business. The
non-traditional locations are usually owned by
existing franchisees that have proven to be very
successful with the SUBWAY® system. If you own
a location such as a convenience store, or any
non-traditional site, you may have the
opportunity to buy a franchise for that location.
Capital requirements for your area can be found
online at www.subway.com.
®
The estimated costs to the right, represent a
wide range of possible locations throughout the
world. Remember that costs will vary in relation
to the physical size of the store. A lower cost
store is one that would require fewer leasehold
improvements, less seating and fewer
equipment expenditures. Moderate and higher
costs stores may require extensive interior
renovations, extensive seating and additional
equipment.
If you are purchasing a franchise for a location
opportunity, such as a non-traditional, the listed
capital requirements may vary and could be
substantially lower depending upon the
necessary equipment you must acquire or
changes in property improvements and
maintenance according to the lease of the store
premises.
Also note that the figures listed do not include
extensive exterior renovations.

NOTABLE GLOBAL QUOTABLES

Through SUBWAY® we got the chance to work together towards fulfilling our dream. With a strong brand name
behind us we are able to run a succesful business and at the same time be proud of selling a fantastic product
to devoted customers. As the company grows we see more and more opportunities come our way and we can
honestly say: This is just the start of a long and prosperous journey. In four years we have developed around 30
stores in the greater Stockholm area and before 2015 our goal is to have more than 100 SUBWAY® stores
up and running.
Jennie & Mikael Von Bargen, DAs Sweden
I opened my first SUBWAY® store 6 years ago having worked for another QSR brand for the previous 15 years. Even
though at that time the SUBWAY® brand in the UK was still in its infancy I was attracted to the brand because of its
proven success in the North American market, I was excited by the opportunity to grow my business alongside the brand in
the UK. The SUBWAY® Franchise allows ordinary people to become business owners without the need for a large capital
investment or previous food experience. I have continued to grow my business alongside the SUBWAY ® Brand and look
forward to opening many more stores in the future.
Chris Scott, Franchisee, UK, 5 franchises
After working in the SUBWAY® system for seven years as an employee, first as a Sandwich Artist and eventually as a
Store Manager, all while in college - I had the chance to work as an Area Supervisor for a multi-unit owner. I witnessed
firsthand how the SUBWAY® franchise is such a great opportunity. When I was offered the chance to buy five stores and
become a multi-unit owner myself, it was a dream come true. Eight years later, I own twelve stores and am the Chairman
of the local iFAF board. The SUBWAY® system has been a very lucrative and exciting business to be part of. It has made
all of my financial and personal goals a reality, while at the same time, I enjoy a quality lifestyle.
Brad Harris, Franchisee, Denver, Colorado, 13 franchises
I grew up on SUBWAY® while living in the village of Manotick, Ontario, and after working at the local store first as a
Sandwich Artist and then Store Manager, I soon realised that the concept and the brand itself had great potential.
After identifying the UK & Ireland as an untapped market back in 1997, I decided to move to England to become a
Franchisee & Development Agent. The quality of the product and the level of customer service that SUBWAY® provides
was exactly what was needed in this marketplace, and SUBWAY ® soon became one of the top food service providers on
the High Street. With the assistance of my sister, Andrea Fleck, I am responsible for the development of the SUBWAY ®
brand within the Five Counties. Now totalling 60 stores, SUBWAY® is the largest QSR in the Five Counties, of which we are
the proud owners of three stores. The SUBWAY® chain provides the product, structure, and support that is required to
assist their Franchisees to reach their goals.
James Fleck, DA United Kingdom, 5 franchises
I´m a Chef by profession and have worked as such for over 20 years in restaurants and hotels in Europe. We were so confident of
the Subway franchise that we sold all our properties in Iceland to open our first SUBWAY® store in July 1999 in Benidorm, Spain.
We opened our second store in 2001 and in 2004 I became the second DA in Spain. The third store opened in 2006 and now we
are opening our fourth store, all in Benidorm. I now have 10 stores open in my territory and things are looking bright for Subway
stores and franchisees in Comunidad Valenciana.

I lived in Michigan as a teenager and I especially enjoyed meals at SUBWAY®. When my family decided to return to
Poland, I was missing my favourite sandwiches. Then, after several business projects and brushing up on my Polish, I
decided to establish SUBWAY® in Poland. In 1999, I passed the franchise training and opened the first store in Poland a
year later. It was a success and so I decided to open two more SUBWAY® stores. I intend to open up others because I can
see that the popularity of this brand is growing. It is a very interesting job because we create a new quality of meals and
new customs. Because our sandwiches are fantastic and people like them freshly prepared before their eyes, SUBWAY ®
will expand in the Central Europe area with great success.
