"Larry's formula for success:
Quality, Honesty, Reliability -
We Set the Standard!"
Larry Raikes - Larry's Giant Subs

"I'm very proud of our franchise owners. They've helped make our company the best it can be. In 1982, my brother Mitchell and I opened the first Larry's Giant Subs in Jacksonville, Florida. We offered extraordinary quality then, as we still do today. Our franchise business owners share our commitment to serving the very best. And we've all been successful using this simple formula."

The first thing you need to know about Larry's Giant Subs is that we do everything in a Big Way. This means we are Quality Driven. We serve only the best . . . no compromises. That's why we are different. That's why we are better.

To be a Larry's Giant Subs Franchisee, all you need is enthusiasm and perseverance. This system was designed by aspiring entrepreneurs and that is who it's tailored to fit. Mitchell Raikes said it best: "We are only as good as the sandwich that comes across the counter and the smiling face that prepares and serves it. Take pride in what you do and be the best that you can be".

The future looks especially bright for the sandwich section of the fast food industry. Sandwiches and salads may be hot but Larry's Giant Subs is even hotter.

Simply put, we believe Larry's Giant Subs sandwiches are the best you can buy. A better sandwich means a better opportunity for you. If you would like to own an exciting business in a growing market segment then a Larry's Giant Subs Franchise could be for you.
