Established Sandwich Franchise

Business Overview:

This established sandwich franchise has operated under a well-known, reputable brand name since 2019. The business specializes in customizable submarine sandwiches, wraps, salads, and bowls, serving a loyal customer base from a well-located storefront in the Arden-Arcade area of Sacramento.

Current ownership is absentee, meaning the business is fully staffed and managed day-to-day without an owner-operator present – creating a significant opportunity for a hands-on buyer to step in and grow the business further (see Growth Potential below).

The business benefits from an established, nationally recognized franchise brand with strong name recognition and an existing customer base, reducing the ramp-up time typically associated with independent food-service concepts.

Day-to-day operations are supported by a team of five part-time employees, allowing the business to run consistently without requiring the owner's daily presence. This existing staffing structure gives an incoming owner-operator a functioning team to build on from day one, rather than having to hire and train a workforce from scratch.

The business is classified under the Food Deli/Takeout category, a segment that benefits from consistent everyday demand, quick-service convenience, and repeat customer visits. Its Arden-Arcade storefront places it within a well-established Sacramento retail corridor with surrounding residential and commercial traffic.

Property Features and Assets:

The business operates from an 875 sq. ft. storefront under an NNN lease at $2,200 per month, with a 3% annual increase. The lease includes a five-year option period beginning September 23, 2027, and expiring September 22, 2032, providing long-term location stability for a new owner.

Assets = $12,000

Market Competition and Expansion:

There are 10 sandwich shops within a 5-mile radius of the location. Industry research rates local competition at 2.5 out of 5. The sandwich shop industry grew 14.0% annually from 2021–2026 and is projected to grow 5.1% annually from 2026–2031, indicating a healthy and expanding market for the category.

The primary growth opportunity lies with an owner-operator willing to work directly in the business. Because current ownership is absentee, there is meaningful upside available to a buyer who takes an active, hands-on role in daily operations, customer service, and cost management.

Reason for Selling:

The current owner is focusing on another business venture. Kindly ask the seller for more information.
