Florida isn’t just another market for Jon Smith Subs—it’s home turf. Born in Palm Beach County, our brand has grown from a single neighborhood sandwich shop into a nationally recognized franchise with a cult following for fresh-sliced meats, grilled-to-order subs, generous portions, and customer-first service.
Now, we’re opening the doors for a massive statewide expansion—releasing exclusive protected territories in every major Florida market. Whether you’re looking to own a flagship store in a high-profile metro or build a multi-unit portfolio across several booming cities, Florida offers the perfect blend of population growth, economic strength, and built-in brand loyalty to fuel your success.
For food service entrepreneurs, the numbers speak for themselves:
From Miami to Pensacola, each region has its own growth story—and Jon Smith Subs is perfectly positioned to thrive in them all.
We're officially offering franchise rights across all remaining open markets in Alabama, excluding a protected 3-mile radius around existing Jon Smith Subs stores. Whether you’re in Miami, Palm Beach, Sarasota, Tampa, Orlando, Treasure Coast or Jacksonville, this is your chance to plant your flag with one of the fastest-growing sandwich brands in America. This is a limited time opportunity. Once territories are sold, they're gone.
