year, our growth creates thousands of
new job opportunities across the

many SUBWAY® customers have
become franchise owners simply
because they believe in the product.

Franchise Capital Requirements
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 non-
traditional 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
Europe. 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
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.

Revised 02-2012
Through the SUBWAY® brand 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´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.
Helgi B Helgason, DA Spain, 3 franchises
NOTABLE GLOBAL QUOTABLES
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 lived in Michigan as a teenager and I especially enjoyed meals at SUBWAY® stores. 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 the SUBWAY® brand 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, the
SUBWAY® brand will expand in the Central Europe area with great success.
Michael Moritz, Franchisee, Warsaw, Poland, 5 franchises
I grew up on SUBWAY® sandwiches 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 the SUBWAY® team
provides was exactly what was needed in this marketplace, and SUBWAY® franchise 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, the SUBWAY® brand is the largest QSR in the
Five Counties, of which we are the proud owners of three stores. The SUBWAY® system 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 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.
