Franchise Professional Becomes Port of Subs Regional Developer

Port of Subs has named Mandy Miller as its 19th regional developer, tasking her with leading expansion into Southern San Diego.

Miller's territory includes Coronado, Chula Vista, and surrounding communities, where she plans to develop at least 10 locations and potentially expand further over time.

She will partner with her father, franchise veteran Jim Rowe, to lead franchise development and support in a market that currently has no Port of Subs locations.

"We were immediately drawn to the strength of the Port of Subs model and the team behind it, but what really stood out was the opportunity to build something meaningful in our own community," Miller said. "San Diego represents a unique white space for the brand, and we see tremendous opportunity to thoughtfully grow the footprint while establishing a strong, locally rooted franchise network across the region."

Miller brings more than a decade of franchising and development experience, including helping scale a wellness brand from one location to more than 50 units. Her background spans franchise sales, real estate, site development, and construction.

"Mandy and Jim bring a rare combination of development expertise and proven franchise leadership, having successfully scaled a brand from a single location to more than 50 units," said Healey Mendicino, CEO and president of Port of Subs. "Their experience across real estate, construction, and franchise growth, as well as their long history in the community, makes them exceptionally well-positioned to build and support a high-performing network in San Diego as we continue to expand."
