Company Overviews

About Atlantic City Sub Shops

Brett Perlman, Scott Perlman and Santo Formica founded Atlantic City Sub Shops in 1986, opening their first store in Egg Harbor Township, New Jersey, just west of the shoreline destination. From that location, the partners began serving submarine sandwiches for customers who would eat in, take out or order delivery.

The company overnights sandwiches made in the Egg Harbor store to customers who don't have an Atlantic City Sub Shop location near them.

About Primo Hoagies

We are very enthused and excited to be able to offer, to certain qualified individuals, an opportunity to purchase one of a limited number of PrimoHoagies franchises. Our venture into franchising has been made possible, and somewhat necessitated, by an increasingly hard to manage workload at our existing locations. This is the result of a growing recognition and demand for our product in the outlying areas of Philadelphia.
 
This offer presents the opportunity to own and operate your own business, with the security of having a name and product recognition that is well established, along with a formula that has proven to be greatly successful. Through on-going consultation, you will benefit greatly from the knowledge and expertise provided by the people who originated PrimoHoagies and subsequently established it as one of the most popular retail food institutions throughout the area and beyond.  
 
 
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.
