December brought us two outstanding member events, our Sugar Plum Ball and of course, our New Year’s Eve Gala. Our Social team of Janet Pollinger, Pat Rizzo and Jane Monico outdid themselves! The club was absolutely beautiful for both events. Huge thanks go to Chef Mike, Lou and our entire kitchen and bar staff and volunteers for their hard work to make these events run smoothly. Sadly, we said goodbye to Phil Farino, who is moving to South Carolina. We wish Phil and Zina the very best! Next, Tim Rippey helped us say goodbye to 2018 and ring in 2019 with fabulous entertainment! Thank you, also, to our wonderful members who come out to enjoy these events. We do it for you! I am looking forward to so many great events our Social team has planned for 2019. We begin the year with our IASC’s Got Talent show in January. Please plan to join us. Tickets are available now! And mark your calendar for Pub Night with Tito on the 26th. Always a fun night! December brought some challenges, too. Freezers needed repair, roof leaks were taken care of and electrical problems were addressed. Your support of the club on Tuesdays, Fridays and at our dinner dances makes it possible for us to maintain our club and keep it the Best Club on the Strip! Thank you to my board of directors for all of your help during my first 6 months as president. I couldn’t do it without you! Prayers go out to all our members who have suffered illness and loss. Please, if you know a member who is hospitalized, ill or has passed, let us know so we can acknowledge them. I am looking forward to a wonderful 2019 with my IA family!!

From humble beginnings he grew the largest quick service restaurant chain in number of units (Subway has close to 45,000 locations worldwide) and Subway was reported by Forbes magazine to be worth $3.5 billion dollars. Not a bad return on a $1,000 investment. He is among a host of franchise founders who started poor and like Dave Thomas (Wendy’s) and Bill Rosenberg (Dunkin Donatus), had an idea and then grew companies that literally changed America. The Subway story begins with a 17-year old’s desire to attend college and asking a family friend for a loan at a barbeque to pay for tuition. Dr. Peter Buck, a nuclear scientist, had a different idea for Fred and instead of loaning him the tuition he needed, instead invested $1,000 for Fred to open his first sandwich shop in 1965. Fred continued his education while growing his chain of restaurants. While originally planning on being a medical doctor, Fred graduated from the University of Bridgeport in 1971 with a degree in psychology. The idea for Subway was Buck’s based on an Italian sandwich shop in Maine called Amato’s that he frequented as a child. Fred and Peter drove up to Maine and spent some time studying the Amato’s operation. A few weeks later they opened their first Pete’s Super Submarine in 1965, changing the name to Pete’s subway and ultimately to Subway in 1968. They settled on “Subway” as a play on words based on the subway system in New York. The name change came about because people who listened to the radio commercials thought the name sounded like Pizza Marines and were surprised when they arrived to discover that is was a sandwich shop and not a pizzeria. The first few restaurants did not do as well as expected, so instead of abandoning the concept Fred instead opened a few more. By 1973 subway had grown to 16 restaurants in Connecticut, and began to franchise in 1974. By 2013 Subway was reported to be opening over 50 new restaurants per week. Today it has close to 45,000 locations in 112 countries, with its first international franchise opening in Bahrain in 1984. Headquartered in Milford, Connecticut under the corporation name Doctor’s Associates, the company’s international operations are serviced from offices in the Netherlands, Australia, Lebanon, Singapore and Miami. Doctor’s Associates is a closely held private company.

  • What Are the Implications of Minimum Wage Regulations on Franchising?
    What Are the Implications of Minimum Wage Regulations on Franchising? Alicia Cofiño Robert Emerson J.D. March 20, 2015 1 Abstract Franchising is often overlooked when people speak about “big business.” However, franchise companies are often those that consumers use almost every day. Franchises include chain restaurants such as McDonald’s and Subway. Additionally, when the legal world and business world intertwine, franchises worldwide are affected. When specific laws about workers are discussed, the effects of these regulations on franchising need to be examined. Specifically, proposed regulations to increase the minimum wage vastly impacts franchisors and franchisees, not just employees and their families. This article examines the positive and negative effects of increasing the minimum wage requirement on United States franchising. 2 Table of Contents OVERVIEW ................................................................................................................................................. 4 HISTORY ................................................................................................................................................... 10 FRANCHISE LAW ...................................................................................................................................... 10 MINIMUM WAGE REGULATION ............................................................................................................... 13 Figure 1: Historical Minimum Wage Prices Adjusted for Inflation ..................................................

Our goal is to publish materials of the highest quality; submit any errata to [email protected]. i1v2e5y5pubs Copyright © 2020, Ivey Business School Foundation Version: 2020-12-04 Subway, an iconic American franchise founded in Bridgeport, Connecticut, in 1965, dominated the submarine sandwich (subs) category until 2014. Under the vision of founder and former chief executive officer Fred DeLuca, the company embraced franchising in the mid-1970s and grew astronomically throughout the 1980s, 1990s, and 2000s. By 2011, Subway had surpassed McDonald’s as the world’s largest restaurant chain.2 However, it began to struggle in 2014.3 By this time, strong competition from companies like Jimmy John’s, Jersey Mike’s, Potbelly, Firehouse Subs, and Panera Bread helped magnify the numerous issues that Subway faced regarding its products, promotion, place (distribution), and price. The place-, product-, and price-related issues were the most serious.

    U B KNIGHTLINES. WINTER 2010 A PUBLICATION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF BRIDGEPORT WINTER 2010 Top Chef Claire Criscuolo ’75 risked it all to open a cozy eatery in downtown New Haven. That was 35 years ago. Now she’s just been named the state’s top restaurateur. How she and other UB alums went to work for themselves, hit it big, and never looked back. ALSO INSIDE • The 100-mile man • Carl Burton’s photos • UB helps Bridgeport win “Best City” award 1 President’s Line I am happy to present the Winter 2010 issue of Knightlines. Many of you have commented favorably on our updated format. We will continue to work on creating a magazine that will delight our alumni and friends — one that is attractive, readable, and filled with the kind of information about UB that will make you proud. The past year has been marked by our continued growth in academic excellence and renewed opportunity. Despite a very challenging climate for college admissions due to economic uncertainty, UB’s undergraduate enrollment actually has grown by 11 percent, bringing our total 2009-2010 enrollment to 5,103 students. This year’s students come from 80 countries and 44 states, but UB also remains a popular choice for home-grown talent: 57 percent of the student body is from Connecticut. UB’s future continues to be so bright for several good reasons. First, students feel the excitement, vitality, and sense of purpose in the atmosphere when they visit our campus — something we encourage all prospective students to do. Second, UB’s commitment to offering career-oriented programs on a solid grounding in the liberal arts is a strong selling point for today’s generation of focused, goal-oriented students.

Executive Summary: With the rebranding process, my main focus will be on making physical changes to the appearance of the brand, also updating the food options by making it much more healthy. Subway has been in need of a makeover for a while now, which is why now is the best time to do it. Since Jared Fogle was the face of the franchise for so long, people associate the old Subway logo and slogan with the commercials he did in the past. In order to dissociate from Fogle completely, creating a new look for Subway will be a fresh change for consumers. The new logo and slogan will have no connection/affiliation to Fogle, therefor this gives Subway a chance to start fresh, which is where the new slogan, “a fresh start” comes from. Our new slogan "a fresh start" perfectly describes our vision for our company. What's special about Subway's new slogan is it is applicable to everyone; we could all use a fresh start in some area of our lives.
