Financial Information

The franchise fee of $10,000 (about £6,000) for outlets is one of the lowest on the market, despite the size of the chain. To encourage multi-unit operation, the franchise fee is reduced to $2,500 (about £1,500) for additional franchises and as a result, 70% of franchises are purchased by existing owners! One reason the costs are so low is that SUBWAY® outlets feature a very simple operation...no cooking is involved so you don’t have to invest large sums in expensive grills and fryers.
