Subway’s Investment in Freshness
Subway has invested a staggering $80 million-plus in technologically advanced deli meat slicers, a trailblazing step that not only enhances the quality of their sandwiches in general, but also paves the way for other chains. The slicers, given away to franchisees and placed inside 20,000 restaurants across the country, allow for in-store preparation of freshly sliced meats, a radical departure from the pre-sliced products they used before. This transformation promises a fresher taste and texture, the new gold standard for fast food. The biggest features of this investment are:
- Mega Financial Investment: Over $80 million spent putting restaurants with state-of-the-art slicers in place.
- National Rollout: Slicers installed in 20,000 American stores to maintain quality consistency.
- Freshly Sliced Meats: Store slicing replaces pre-sliced meat, assuring improved taste and freshness.
- Franchisee Empowerment: Slicers were offered complimentary to franchisees to provide consistency of excellence.
- Premium Experience: The system is dependent upon delivering a premium-quality sandwich to each customer.
This in-your-face investment is a testament to Subway’s dedication to freshness and customer satisfaction, and each bite of its redefined sandwich attests to it, as the dedication to elevating the fast food experience. With an emphasis on cutting in-store, Subway presents a deli-quality experience that is unparalleled in an increasingly saturated marketplace, making the giveaway the perfect vehicle for this groundbreaking upgrade.
