Hi all. Been very busy recently with my new business, so I've not had a chance to chat on Fchat. Well Im having my pre-opening party for my first Subway Restaurant tomorrow in South Harrow. So if you are passing by on Northolt Road tomorrow between 4pm and 6pm pop in for free food! I've got another one opening in Swiss Cottage in 2 months, so i'll keep you posted on the progress of that. Did I mention the free food!
Hi Adnaan - good luck! I can't make it to this one, but I would have liked to - I haven't been to a Subway restaurant for years. Last time was when I used to have to make regular business trips to Tokyo and the local Subway offered a pleasant break from the normal lunchtime routine of Sushi or Noodles!!
good luck , Adnaan. I've just come back from Florida and spent most of my lunchtimes at the local Subway there.Good quality food at v reasonable price. How much were franchises, if that's not too rude a question?
Dear Tony, Of course it's not a 'too rude a question' to ask someone what they paid for a business. However, some may suggest that it is more than slightly impertinent and I would be amongst that number.
As long as i'm not asking you, don't worry your sad old self about it. If Adnaan doesn't want to reply , he doesn't have to. The reason i asked was that i and a number of colleagues looked into buying a site in the City a few years ago.
Dear Tony h, It is very naughty of you to persist in this impertinence. Also, partnership's generally end in disaster. So, just look how much money you saved yourself by only recently becoming this impertinent. However, as an act of altruism I am pleased to divulge to you that the Franchise price is approximately £*******
Adnaan Best of luck with the new venture, next time I'm down south I'll make a point of dropping in. does this mean that you've stopped being a PM?
Hi Adnaan, Congratulation buddy!!! May your new subway restautant run like a rocket. Good Luck & All The Best Wolfgang
Hello and thnks. I saw this info on Subway's website, but it's only a rough guide. Prices will differ greatly depending on the location of the shop.
Dont know if you are used to running your own business....its fun and pays for the fcars too! Just don't get involved with staff issues! Good luck, mate of mine had and sold a Subway in Essex, did really well
Hi Adnaan, Good luck with the new restaurant, If it`s not a daft question what`s the edge with a Subway Restaurant (apart from the obvious). Any pics. Regards Phil.
Hi all Thanks for all the well wishes, and sorry for the late reply. The first few days have been chaos! The first day (thursday) we were open for only two hours (4 - 6pm). We served just under 400 people in the two hours! All food was free of course. The line of people outside was so big that we had to call out the police to control it. A fight even broke out, so now I can say that people were fighting over our food!! Man that was crazy, and to think I have to go through it again in two months with store #2! Tony - I dont mind telling at all. I'll pm you the details. Phil - I'll load up some pics over the next few days. The shop fitters done a great job, and then the crowd trashed the place in two hours! Nothing a bit of elbow grease couldnt fix though.. Andrew - Yup I chucked in the city job for this. So the only projects for me will be this. All others. - Thanks guys, Adnaan
