PrimoHoagies’ aggressive growth plan helped the sandwich franchise thrive during the COVID-19 pandemic with a 21% increase in sales. “This Colorado debut is just the beginning of a nationwide strategy to bring our signature hoagies to as many future fans as possible,” said PrimoHoagies Chief Executive Officer Nicholas Papanier Jr.
A New Jersey-based sandwich chain has announced plans to expand into Colorado.
PrimoHoagies said it has signed new franchise agreements to open five locations in Denver, part of a 18-restaurant expansion that also includes Florida, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania.
Originally founded in South Philadelphia in 1992, PrimoHoagies currently operates locations in Pennsylvania, Delaware, Florida, Maryland, New Jersey, North Carolina, and South Carolina. PrimoHoagies began to franchise in 1999.
PrimoHoagies is adding four locations in the region: two in Stroudsburg, one in Warrington, and another in Hackettstown, N.J. The South Jersey-based chain started in Philadelphia in 1992, and its latest expansion takes it to the West for the first time, with five outlets planned in Denver. Primo touts its fresh bread, lean meats, aged cheeses, crisp produce and “secret” spices.
