Plans for 15 openings in new markets and online ordering will help Penn Station East Coast Subs grow in 2018.

In 2017, Penn Station East Coast Subs saw system-wide sales growth and opened seven stores, and according to a recent QSR Magazine article, the brand was named one of QSR’s Best Franchise Deals for the third time, including back-to-back recognitions in 2016 and 2017. With plans to add online ordering to its app and 15 restaurants in new markets within a concentric circle from their home base in Cincinnati, Penn Station is set up for serious growth in 2018.
“Our training department continued to make great strides and is a huge asset for our franchisees,” said Craig Dunaway, president of Penn Station. “We’re also almost finished updating our app again, which has been great for franchisees and customers.”
Chicago, Atlanta, Pittsburgh, Kansas City, Nashville and Raleigh are all target markets for the brand and for prospective franchise partners, Penn Station is known for its return on investment and outstanding profitability. The fast-casual restaurant serves grilled and cold sandwiches, fresh-cut fries and hand-squeezed lemonade at its 310 locations in 15 states.
