    About Jimmy John's Gourmet Sandwich Shops

    James J. Liautaud established Jimmy John's in Charleston, Illinois, in 1983 when he was 19 years of age. With utilized hardware, a cooler, one meat slicer, a cooler and a stove, Jimmy John Liautaud began his business without even a posted menu or an open air sign. At the time, he offered four sandwich assortments and 25-penny sodas. In the wake of going out sandwich tests all through the school town, Liautuad included conveyance benefit, tables, open air signs, menu sheets and an extended menu. He opened a few more stores and built up a model before diversifying started in 1993. Jimmy John's franchisees prepare bread at every store each day, and each sandwich is made new to arrange in 30 seconds.

    The total investment necessary to begin operation of a Jimmy John's Restaurant is $313,600 to $556,100 (including initial real estate lease costs).
    This includes $30,000 to $37,000 that must be paid to the franchisor or affiliate.
    If you want development rights (for a minimum of 3 Restaurants), you must pay the franchisor a development fee equal to $35,000 (the initial franchise fee for the first Restaurant), plus the $30,000 initial franchise fee due under each additional Franchise Agreement you sign when you sign the Development Rights Rider, plus a deposit of $10,000 for each additional Restaurant you agree to develop but for which you do not sign a Franchise Agreement when you sign the Development Rights Rider.

    About the streat

    In 1999 husband and wife team Michael and Nikki McQuillan opened their first streat cafe in Belfast. Their vision was to develop the streat as the best known and most successful cafe concept to come out of Ireland by delivering consistently great food and coffee with award winning service in contemporary surroundings Since developing their successful formula into a franchise and investing heavily in the business while developing a substantial management team, the streat has rapidly become Ireland's fastest growing Cafe franchise. It is renowned for its fresh food, fabulous coffee and friendly service. More than a cafe... Franchisees are developing successful businesses within their streat cafes and growing their businesses beyond the cafe door by creating substantial outside catering and food delivery elements. Franchisees are supported and guided by the franchise support team in this, more than a cafe approach to business development. With 30 Cafe Outlets currently established and more opening, throughout Ireland, the streat is now launching its innovative "more than a cafe" business model into Great Britain and beyond.

    Tragically we are not seeking any new franchisees right now however please don't hesitate to round out our establishment enquiry form and we will be glad to contact you amid our next enrollment drive. Meanwhile enjoy the tastes of our present franchises and perhaps ask if any of them are looking to sell.
