November 03, 2015 // Franchising.com // Miramar, FL - Jersey Mike’s Subs, known for its fresh sliced/fresh grilled subs, opened in Miramar on October 21. Operating partner Matt Forbes held a grand opening free sub fundraiser from Wednesday, October 28 to Wednesday, November 4 to support Dolphin Bay Elementary School, Coconut Palm Elementary School, Everglades High School, Glades Middle School and Silver Shores Elementary School.
The new restaurant, located at Fountains of Miramar on 2945 S.W. 160th Ave., circulated 10,000 coupons throughout the community offering a free regular sub for a minimum $2 contribution to Broward County Public Schools.
“This will be my tenth year with Jersey Mike’s and my second store as the operating partner,” said Forbes. “This store is an awesome opportunity since the brand is moving more south into Broward County and it will be a new challenge to introduce our great subs to this community. Miramar is a tight knit community so it was very natural for us to partner with the Broward County Public Schools for our grand opening fundraiser. We are going to be able to create lasting partnerships with these schools and hopefully make a difference in the process.”
Forbes is an exemplary Jersey Mike’s operating partner who shares the company’s commitment to quality products and exceptional customer service, and who is dedicated to giving back to the local community. Since 2010, Jersey Mike’s locations throughout the country have raised nearly $13 million for worthy local charities and have distributed more than 1 million free sub sandwiches to help numerous causes. This year, the company’s 5th Annual Jersey Mike’s Month of Giving in March raised more than $3 million for 150 local charities throughout the country.
Started in 1956, Jersey Mike’s now has 1,500 restaurants open and under development nationwide. In 2015, for the second year in a row, the company was named the #1 fastest growing chain in the Nation’s Restaurant News Top 100, and continues to win best sub awards in virtually every market it enters.
The growth is fueled by passionate Jersey Mike’s fans who crave their subs made Mike’s Way® with the freshest vegetables – onions, lettuce and tomatoes – topped off with an exquisite zing of “the juice” – red wine vinegar and olive oil blended to perfection. Jersey Mike’s premium meats and cheeses are sliced on the spot, piled high on in-store baked bread and served up with a helping of neighborly banter from a dedicated and high-energy team.
The restaurant’s hours are 10 a.m. to 9 p.m., seven days a week. You can contact this location directly at (954) 534-9069.
