D’Angelo Franchise to Open 122 New Locations in Next 5 Years

This Northern Grilled sandwich chain with nearly 200 company and franchise locations serves over one million guests every month with its 44-sandwich menu prepared on the grill, toasted, or cold. Soups and salads complete the menu that is created from proprietary recipes baked on location. Average sales for 2008 exceeded $770,000 per location.

D’Angelo is gearing up for growth after 41 years in the business and plan to open 122 new franchise locations over the next 5 years. The new store design is attracting customers in record numbers and once patrons have tasted the fare, they are hooked with approximately 60% returning 3 or more times per month. They say the key difference between D’Angelo and competitors is the grill. D'Angelo is a leader in the Quick Serve Sandwich Segment and is the Official sandwich of the Boston Red Sox.
