Jersey Mike's

The Jersey Mike's franchise's Super Sub was created in Point Pleasant, New Jersey,  in 1956. Peter Cancro started working in the sandwich business when he was 14 years old. A few years later at the age of 17, before state law allowed him to operate a slicing machine, Cancro bought the original Jersey Mike's location. The company's subs are known for their red wine vinegar and an olive oil blend. Its produce is grown, packed and shipped locally, and then handled with the care at its stores. When you eat a sub the Mike’s Way, you can be certain that your veggies were prepped by hand earlier that day for the highest level of freshness and flavor.

Background

The quality of Jersey Mike's product creates a passionate, loyal customer base that has led to solid repeat business. On top of being clean and easy, franchising with Jersey Mike's requires little equipment investment and very manageable staff sizes. Its comfortable store interiors, fresh product prepared in front of you and friendly banter between customers and crew make this simple concept exciting and vibrant. The company's limited menu offerings add to the simplicity of its model, and also strengthen its brand by focusing on what it do best: making fresh, delicious, authentic sub sandwiches. Franchisees should understand that the “Giving” component of the Jersey Mike’s brand is as authentic as the subs. As a teenage entrepreneur, Peter Cancro was taught the importance of giving to community causes by other local business people he considered his mentors. From the very beginning, Peter embraced this concept of making a difference and instilled it in his franchise company. Today that giving spirit is alive and well. And it is every bit as much of Jersey Mike’s culture as oil and vinegar. With over 50 years under its belt, Jersey Mike's systems are time tested and its customers are passionate about the product and the Jersey Mike’s experience. The company's growth, however, is just beginning. Territories throughout the country are now available for development. The time is now; the opportunity is right in front of you.
