Profit Potential
Subway encourages you to learn more about how profitable the restaurants are by speaking with our franchisees. Generally, the most important profitability factors are:
The location of the restaurant
How well the restaurant is run
Since we don?t know where your restaurant will be or how well you will run it, we can?t predict your profits. In fact, to eliminate possible misunderstandings, we have a policy that no employee or agent of ours can provide you with projections as to your potential sales, earnings and profitability. The best way to get profitability information is to follow these steps:
Fill out an application. We will send you a disclosure document with the names and phone numbers of all our franchisees.
Call as many owners (*PDF) as you like. Ask them how they like being franchisees, how long they?ve been with the company, how many stores they own and how they are doing.
You?ll enjoy talking to our owners, and you?ll learn first-hand from the people who once did exactly what you?re doing now?investigating our franchise program.

More About Our Goals
Our goals are to be number one in location count and number one in customer satisfaction in every market we serve. How are we doing?
Customer satisfaction: Consumers in the United States rank Subway number one against the major competitors in eight important categories, including Taste/Flavor, Quality and Healthy/Nutritious food (*PDF). (Source: QSR)
Location count (*PDF): McDonald?s ® is the largest fast-food chain in the world and Subway is number two. However, Subway already has more locations than McDonald?s in Canada, Iceland, the Bahamas, El Salvador and Guam. Also, this year Subway could surpass McDonald?s restaurant count in the United States! *In most countries McDonald?s holds a substantial lead, indicating that there may be great expansion opportunities for franchisees that join us now.(*Source: McDonald?s ® Press Release 1/01)
