According to SUBWAY, its expansion plans are in response to growing consumer demand for affordable, healthier food choices that are made to order and extended opening hours, which cater for the growing ‘breakfast to go’ market.

There are currently 1,755 SUBWAY franchises in the UK and Ireland.

“The UK and Irish markets have been fantastic success stories for the SUBWAY brand and we see opportunities for further growth as more and more consumers demand great tasting food at a value price point,” Mike Charest, Subway’s assistant regional director for Europe, says. 

“The introduction of a varied breakfast menu and longer opening hours have been instrumental in increasing store footfall.

“In addition to our traditional store development, we see new potential in settings such as universities, stations, convenience stores, hospitals, airports and petrol stations.”
