Dedicated franchisees throughout the country have been working together over the last 10 years to build the Roly Poly reputation and fine tune the franchise system. Our original first year franchisees are still opening new stores and celebrating record breaking sales! What's the reason for this amazing franchisee success? Another of our favorite words, SIMPLICITY! The system that we have developed is simple, and when our system is followed, it works. We know that it's not always easy to match up the right franchisees to the right concept. How can you tell if our franchise system might be the right one for you? Ask yourself:

If you answered yes to all of the above questions then WE WANT YOU! Our successful team of franchisees and developers all have the same outlook and passion for the concept. The following criteria will also help determine how suitable Roly Poly is for you:

- Roly Poly is most successful as an owner operated concept. Our concept requires the TLC that we believe only comes from motivated coworkers working hand in hand with dedicated owners.

- Roly Poly thrives in upper middle class market area locations. We look for the shopping areas patronized by the most upscale residential neighborhoods with a customer mix of upscale residential, office workers, hospital/medical professionals, retail workers and students.

- Our ideal size is 1,000 - 1,400 square feet

- Our busiest stores operate 7 days a week with 75% / 25% anticipated lunch/dinner business breakdown

The right franchisee knows the right locations for Roly Poly. We look for franchisees that are already a part of the community.

Any Sub Shop Can Make A Sandwich... But It Takes Little King To Unlock "The Authentic Deli-Taste"

In January of 1969, Little King opened for business at 80th & Dodge in Omaha, Nebraska. The store was primarily operated and managed by Sid Wertheim and family. Since the day of inception, people fell in love with the Little King.  As Little King expanded, it grew into a chain, not only in the Omaha area, but across the country. The original franchise started with eleven sub-type sandwiches, chips and drinks. Since then, several additions have been made with sandwiches on wheat, rye, French bread, and specialty breads. Gyros, salads, soups, cookies, Rice Krispies and Brownies were added to the menu, with all breads and specialties baked fresh in our stores.  Little King changes with the tastes and requests of our customers, particularly in today's health-conscious market. Fresh food ingredients, cleanliness, and well-trained managers and staff have contributed to Little King's success. These fundamentals are critical to the proper delivery of our service and are part of the training of every Little King employee. Sub sandwich meats are carved directly in front of the customer for the freshest possible ingredients. Sid Wertheim's original procedure and "showmanship" is the same as that performed today.
