PrimoHoagies
Franchising

It's Not Just a Hoagie... It's a Primo!

Established in 1992 PrimoHoagies is a family owned business. We pride ourselves on tradition, using family recipes in our menu and carrying the Primo name through every step of the evolution of our company.

For more than 30 years, PrimoHoagies has been serving fresh, gourmet Hoagies and sides of the highest quality. This is one of the many reasons that we are one of the leading brands in the fast-growing Sandwich/Hoagie quick-service restaurant category.

With a steady growth up and down the East coast we have begun to expand our reach across the US to states such as Texas & Colorado.

We enthusiastically believe that our unique and diverse menu, along with our widespread reputation for unconditional quality, will be a springboard for success in this franchise opportunity. We will not, however, make any claims of instant prosperity based solely on the reputation that Primo has established up to this point. The end result will ultimately depend on your diligent work and total commitment to achieve success in your business and eventually reap the benefits of your accomplishments.

We are excited to work with our franchisees to continue to grow the brand from coast to coast. We believe in controlled and sustained growth with the right franchisees in the right locations.

Join the primo family.
