Exclusive Walmart Franchise Opportunities in Alabama
Featured Walmart Locations Available Now:
Exclusive Walmart Locations We currently have two prime Alabama Walmart Supercenter locations available for immediate franchise development. These sites offer instant daily customer flow, ample parking, and proven high-traffic counts.
📍 Boaz, AL (Albertville Metro Area)
Address: 1972 HWY 431, Boaz, Alabama
Size Options: Choose either 1,042 SF or 1,652 SF
Status: Vacant and ready to lease
Traffic: 🔥 Extremely high daily foot traffic from Walmart shoppers and surrounding retail
Opportunity: This high-visibility location offers exceptional drive-by exposure, ample parking, and rapid setup potential for franchise or independent brands.
📍 Foley, AL (Daphne–Fairhope–Foley Metro Area)
Address: 2200 S McKenzie St, Foley, Alabama
Size Options: Choose either 1,042 SF or 1,652 SF
Status: Vacant and ready to lease
Traffic: 🔥 Heavy daily volume with strong retail synergy and direct access to Walmart's customer base
Opportunity: Ideal for restaurant franchises looking for fast openings in a premium retail corridor. Leverage Walmart's massive built-in traffic and reduce launch costs and timeline.
Two Prime Footprint Options for Walmart Locations:
1,652 SF – Perfect for dine-in restaurants with high-capacity seating, optimized for maximum volume, foot traffic conversion, and full-service kitchen operations. Ideal for brands seeking a strong retail presence with space for a full customer experience.
1,042 SF – Designed for fast-casual and delivery-first models. This compact, high-efficiency layout is ideal for quick-serve restaurants (QSR), ghost kitchens, and mobile-order-heavy businesses. Maximize revenue with a smaller footprint and lower overhead.
Why These Walmart Locations Stand Out
High Traffic. Quick Buildouts.
These high-traffic Alabama Walmart centers deliver unbeatable exposure and built-in foot traffic from thousands of daily shoppers. Both sites allow for a faster time to open compared to traditional strip mall or standalone builds, thanks to existing infrastructure and flexible footprint options. Availability is extremely limited. If you're a restaurant franchise, food brand, or retail operator seeking instant customer volume and proven foot traffic, these turnkey spaces won’t last.
Why these locations matter: Walmart brings massive built-in traffic, reduces marketing costs, and provides a faster opening timeline than traditional real estate. Availability is extremely limited, and once these locations are gone, they’re gone for good.

Wondering where a Jon Smith Subs franchise will thrive? Based on demographic research, traffic flow, and QSR demand, these are Alabama's top-performing franchise markets. Alabama offers the perfect mix of metro growth, small-town loyalty, and tourism-driven foot traffic.

Major Metro Areas

Why Jon Smith Subs?
Jon Smith Subs is not your typical sandwich shop — we deliver a premium, fresh, made-to-order experience that customers can taste in every bite. Our subs are packed with flavor, stacked with freshly sliced meats and cheeses, piled high with farm-fresh vegetables, and served on bakery-fresh bread.
While other brands cut corners, we cut fresh — right in front of the customer. Every sub is either grilled hot for maximum flavor or prepared cold with the same high standards. No pre-packaged, low-grade deli meat here — only quality ingredients customers are proud to pay for.
For investors, this means a loyal customer base, strong repeat business, and word-of-mouth marketing that drives long-term profitability.
What Makes Jon Smith Subs Different
🔥 Fresh-Cut Meats & Cheeses Daily – No pre-sliced storage. Everything is cut fresh in-store for unmatched taste and texture.
🥩 Grilled-to-Order Flavor – Many of our signature subs are cooked hot, sealing in flavor and satisfying cravings like no cold-only shop can.
🇺🇸 Proudly All-American – Veteran-friendly, community-driven, and built for long-term local relationships.
💼 Multiple Formats – From stand-alone restaurants to prime Walmart Supercenter locations, ghost kitchens, and food court units — we fit the footprint that fits your growth plan.
🧠 Backed by Proven Expertise – Supported by Indigo Hospitality Group, giving you access to a team that knows franchise growth, real estate, and operations inside and out.
📈 Multi-Unit Growth Potential – Perfect for ambitious entrepreneurs, area developers, and restaurant groups seeking to scale.
This Opportunity Will Not Last
Between prime Walmart deals, exclusive territory availability, and the surging popularity of Jon Smith Subs, this Alabama rollout will sell out quickly.
