INVESTMENT INFORMATION

Qualifications for Prospective Franchise Partners

Wondering what it takes to get started with our sandwich franchise? Capriotti’s Sandwich Shop is looking for partners aligned with our core values—passion, profitability, integrity, and genuineness—and who also fit our “family” culture. Maintaining the Capriotti’s culture is very important to us, as we believe these values are the key ingredients for a successful future. Additionally, the ideal franchise owner will have high levels of business acumen and a proven track record of growing a business.

Though restaurant experience is fantastic, it is not required. Prospective owners should be passionate about the food we serve, dedicated to always being brand ambassador, and fully understand why the customer experience is so vital to who we are and what we do.
