An Industry-Recognized Top Franchise Opportunity
My father-in-law first introduced my wife and me to Port of Subs, and with just one bite, we were hooked! We knew we had to join the Port of Subs family. As a franchisee, coming from a healthcare background, I’ve gained valuable experience in all aspects of running my own business. It has not only enhanced my leadership skills but also allowed me to diversify my business portfolio.
After dedicating over a decade to working at our beloved Port of Subs store, we were thrilled to become franchisees and take ownership! Port of Subs has not only provided us with the means to support ourselves and our families, but also the flexibility to live life on our own terms.
I’ve had an incredible journey with Port of Subs for 12 years, starting as a team member and working my way up to become a Franchise Field Consultant. After years of contributing to the success of others, I decided to take the leap and become a franchisee. Now, as the proud owner of 3 Port of Subs stores in Las Vegas, I get to share my unwavering love for our brand and our delicious products every single day!

Slicing Fresh Since 1972
As your neighborhood sandwich shop, Port of Subs has been bringing people together since 1972. Our story began when two brothers from New Jersey opened a modest submarine shop in Sparks, Nevada, known as the “Sub Shop”. Yet, it was John Larsen and his family who recognized the potential and gained full ownership in 1975. Determined to set themselves apart from imitators, they launched a community-wide contest to find a new name. After reviewing over 10,000 entries, the name “Port of Subs” emerged as the clear choice. nIn 1985, we embraced the franchise model to meet consumer demand.
Today, Port of Subs stands tall as a leading franchising company in the quick-service restaurant industry. In 2023, Port of Subs caught the attention of Area 15 Ventures, a distinguished investment firm led by Dave Liniger, the co-founder and former CEO of RE/MAX. Drawing from our rich legacy, core values, and rock-solid business model, Liniger and his team are bringing their franchise expertise to fuel accelerated growth and rapid expansion of the brand. As we ride the wave of success, we’ll bring the unique taste of Port of Subs to more neighborhoods than ever before.
