About Great Outdoors Sub Shops

"Every sub is a masterpiece and every customer a good friend".

The man behind the statement, Jerry Oliverie, decided to give up a Bio-Med Degree at Paterson State College back in 1971 when he took over a "Ma & Pa" sub shop in Morristown, NJ. He enjoyed serving great quality subs with a personal touch and so this established community sub shop with Jerry's passion grew substantially in sales. Jerry took his knowledge and talents to Texas and created his own concept, The Great Outdoors, and became an instant success. With over 35 years of hands on experience, successfully profitable company owned and franchised locations he welcomes interested entrepreneurs to share in the excellence.
