Franchise Interview with Jersey Mike's Subs
Peter Cancro, founder and CEO of Jersey Mike's Franchise Systems, has recently been named Entrepreneur of the Year, receiving the honor during the International Franchise Association's (IFA) 53rd Annual Convention, February 17-20, 2013. It started back in 1956 and was originally called Mike's Subs. Mike opened the small shop in the seaside town of Point Pleasant, New Jersey. Remember that 1956 there were very few franchise restaurants or hamburger chains. There are no chain pizza, chicken, or taco restaurants, either.
