Carron Posted February 17, 2013 Report Share Posted February 17, 2013 Had a read through the article. I would doubt it very much, more like the South East of England. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlickDT Posted February 24, 2013 Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 A friend of mine looked into opening a subway in perth a few years back, but as with most well known franchises the start up cost was massive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carron Posted February 24, 2013 Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 Extracted for Subway Web page. Have put in bold certain bits of info. In fact, in some cases, traditional SUBWAY® outlets can be opened for as little as c. £100,000. The total initial investment will depend on many factors including location, rent, outlet size and equipment. The franchise agreement is for 20 years and renewable for 20 years (subject to terms and conditions). An important consideration in purchasing your first SUBWAY® outlet is how to finance your investment. A good arrangement is to have 50% of the total capital requirements available in cash and sufficient collateral to obtain funding for the balance. Below are links to lenders that can offer support. Royalties and fees paid to the SUBWAY® brand are based on gross sales minus sales tax. The royalties are 8% to the SUBWAY® brand. A 4.5% advertising fee is paid to the 'Franchisee Advertising Fund (FAF)'. Franchisees in some markets may vote to increase the marketing fee percentage for local advertising purposes. The franchise fee of €10,000* for outlets is one of the lowest on the market, despite the size of the chain. One reason the costs are so low is that SUBWAY® outlets feature a very simple operation. No cooking is involved so franchisees don’t have to invest large sums in expensive grills and fryers. Also, the décor package is streamlined so that money isn’t wasted on non-recoverable assets. * See SUBWAY® Capital Requirements in the Franchise Sales Brochure » Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SingaporeSaint Posted February 25, 2013 Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 I must admit to liking both Nandos and Subway. Not bought anything out of McDonald's for about twenty years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edstar101 Posted February 25, 2013 Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 (edited) Subway are magic!! I am sure I read a few months ago that they had overtaken McD's for the number of outlets in operation Edited February 25, 2013 by Edstar101 Carron 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myDarlingBeefeater Posted February 25, 2013 Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 Surprised there is no Subway but you can shove Nandos up yer ****! I like a Nandos but it's pricey for what it is.
