FRANCHISE OPPORTUNITIES
PASSIONATE ABOUT TASTE
THE STORY SO FAR
• Hungry for success, Rick Schaden had just graduated from the
University of Colorado, United States. He had written his business studies project about Quiznos.
• Overhearing a customer, in 1986, say it was the best sandwich they’d ever eaten inspired him.
• In 1987, he bought his first franchise. In 1991, with his
father Dick Schaden, he purchased the entire operation
of 18 restaurants.
•Best known for its chef-inspired recipes and toasted Italian-style
deli sandwiches, Quiznos Subs is now the hottest franchise
around with more than 5,000 outlets worldwide.
• The Quiznos chain has plans to expand into locations over
40 countries and territories.
THE PEOPLE, THE CULTURE
•Become a part of this global success story and achieve financial
freedom as a franchisee.
• The time is ripe for an upmarket deli-style sandwich chain in the UK. Quiznos Sub plans to expand its UK stores by the end of the year.
•People passionate about running their own business and providing
a fresher, tastier and healthier alternative to fast food, which is
also convenient and affordable, are wanted to catapult this fast
growing sandwich chain to becoming the UK’s market leader.
• Plans to corporately franchise in the UK and offer its huge
resources and infrastructure to ensure success of our franchises.
TOASTING TASTES BETTER
•Toasting and chef inspired recipes are the ingredients of the Quinzos Sub success story.
• The baguette-style sandwiches are made from recipe bread, signature sauces, hand sliced meats, cheeses, and fresh
vegetables, comprising the finest ingredients.
•The artisan breads are carefully designed to make the perfect
recipe for toasting.

• The made-to-order subs are placed open faced into a toaster and
and toasted just enough to melt the cheese and release the
delicious flavours.
WHY CHOOSE
®
BE YOUR OWN BOSS
Are you ready to take control of your own destiny, build personal
net worth and be in full control of what you do? Owning a Quiznos
franchise enables you to do just that. As a franchise owner, you’ll
have the opportunity to build personal net worth — putting you on
the path to financial freedom. By joining the Quiznos family, you’ll
minimize the risk associated with starting a business. While more
than half of all start-up businesses fail within 6 years,
9 out of every 10 franchises succeed!
THE RESTAURANT
REVOLUTION IS HERE
You see, we are spearheading a culinary revolution. We know
that consumers want fast food convenience but not fast food
taste. Quiznos is dedicated to providing delicious and unique
flavours at prices competitive with other fast food brands.
But a product that is a cut above is not the only reason for
Quiznos franchisees’ success.
The restaurant sector is a thriving half TRILLION dollar industry
that has seen 15 consecutive years of solid growth. Consider this:
the typical consumer now visits a sandwich franchise an average
of 2.5 times a week.
Quiznos and its formula for success gives its franchise owners
a unique opportunity to capitalize on these growth trends.
We are the hottest sub brand around!
THE QUIZNOS COMPANY
More than 26 years ago we pioneered oven-toasting. And we
continue to pioneer and lead as one of the top franchises available
today. Our food, our oven-toasting, our brand. We’re a cut above
the rest of those other fast food franchises. Prepare to be inspired.
“Quiznos is very innovative when it comes to product
and customer service... everything is there for you.
All you have to think about is running your business.”
PAUL ARNOLD
Quiznos franchise owner

marketplace…one successful restaurant and
one “wowed” customer at a time.

toasted subs, as well as soups and salads, freshly

every square foot of your store from a sales and

weeks to turn a store around.
