Thank you for your interest in the SUBWAY® system

At Subway Development Corporation of Washington (SDC), we take pride in the exceptional franchise opportunity that we offer. We strive to provide our franchisees with the tools and the knowledge to run a great local business, and we encourage owners to learn the skills that will allow them to own and operate multiple locations.

Here’s where the SUBWAY® franchise system stands today:

  • Worldwide, there are more than 36,804 restaurants operating in 100 countries.
  • In the United States, Subway® has been Number 1 for more than a decade.
  • SDC’s single largest territory, with 1100 stores in the District of Columbia, Maryland, Virginia and Delaware, is Number 1 in the DC metropolitan area.

What gives the SUBWAY® franchise system the edge in the sandwich category?

  • Great Food - Our varied menu selection provides our customers with endless options.
  • Simplicity - We have an easy-to-run operation.
  • Support - We have systems in place to assist our franchisees. There’s no guesswork.
  • Control - We teach owners to use exceptional control methods to help them run their business efficiently.

The SUBWAY® system is a strong and growing brand known for great tasting sandwiches that are a healthier alternative to traditionally fatty fast food. Why are the sandwiches so good?

  • Bread baked on premises. Every restaurant bakes its own pre-frozen bread daily.
  • Gourmet sandwiches. The flavored breads and select sauces taste delicious
  • Made to Order. Each sandwich is made to order in front of the customer.

We also take great pride in our people, with more than 10,000 employees in the SDC development area, especially in our growing team of franchise owners. Here’s why franchisees embrace the SUBWAY® franchise system:

  • Quality of Our Product
  • Location Flexibility
  • Lower Investment
  • Operational Support

At SDC, we work very closely with our franchisees. There are support structures in place to assist franchisees with their advertising, supply ordering and other operational needs. We have a great organization, and if you are interested in becoming a part of the SUBWAY® franchise system, we would love to speak to you.
