The goodness and tradition of Duke Sandwich Co. can be traced back to
Eugenia Duke preparing sandwiches for World War I soldiers - delectably
simple spreads that reminded the doughboys of a taste of home. New
flavors and new traditions are being born every day at Duke Sandwich
Co., yet they’re driven by the same integrity and passion that propelled
the company forward a century ago. Now to celebrate our 100 year
anniversary we introduce a new brand and soon new menu items to follow.
Don't worry your favorites are not going anywhere! Now this family-owned and operated company is sharing its original recipes and time-tested business system-offering franchise opportunities exclusively in South Carolina, North Carolina, Georgia and Tennessee.
