Opening a sandwich shop isn’t for everyone. Although, with a PrimoHoagies franchise, you aren’t required to have sub or sandwich shop experience. We’ve created a turnkey investment that provides franchisees with all the training and support they need to become experts in the industry without any prior experience in it. With that being said, there are specific qualities that we look for in applicants who want to invest in this amazing franchise opportunity.

Leadership Experience
Whether you are looking to invest in one PrimoHoagies franchise or multiple units, you have to have some experience with leading a team. As a franchise owner, you are responsible for hiring your employees to manage your franchise, and in order for a location to be successful, your team needs to share the same values you do and the same drive to the business’ success.

Business or Restaurant Experience
Most opportunities that involve opening a business require having some sort of business experience. If you are looking to run multiple units and have a higher-level position in your franchise, having business or restaurant experience behind you can go a long way.

Customer Service Experience
A big aspect of the PrimoHoagies brand is customer experience. We value our quality and consistency, and so do all the people who frequent PrimoHoagies. This means that our franchise owners need to be able to recognize what customers need and how to best address them.
The Drive to Be Successful
With a PrimoHoagies franchise, you could bring something completely new to your community. Since our roots are strong in the Philadelphia area, that means that there are countless territories in other parts of the country that are available for new franchises. We put a lot of time into finding these ideal territories for opening a sandwich shop like ours, and we can help find the closest one to you.
A franchise is a business, which means our owners need to have the drive to see its success. Whether you want to be more hands-on in the operations of one location or hire a team to manage multiple units, you need to create a system that works best for you and incorporates the PrimoHoagies model and values into it.
Starting Liquid Capital
Every single PrimoHoagies franchise unit needs to have starting capital to get it up and running for the first few months of business. There are all kinds of expenses when you are first opening a sandwich shop, so having some starting funds in addition to the amount of the franchise fee to get your franchise off the ground is ideal.
These are the primary qualifications we look for in a PrimoHoagies franchise owner, but we value all kinds of personalities and experience. If you are passionate about investing in a PrimoHoagies franchise, we want to hear from you. We have created a franchise model that allows for owners to come from all different walks of life. Whether you are from Philadelphia and know what Primo brings to the table or you want to make a smart investment in multiple units, we may be the perfect franchise opportunity for you.
