A Global Legacy

Founded in 1965 in Connecticut, USA, Subway began as a local sandwich shop created by Fred DeLuca when he was just 17 years old, aimed at funding his college tuition. The custom-made sandwich concept resonated worldwide, and Subway has since grown into a global chain with over 100 countries under its belt. Since its first store opened in Japan in March 1992 in Minato, Tokyo, the brand has captured the hearts of sandwich lovers nationwide. Each day, the staff meticulously crafts sandwiches using freshly baked bread, premium ingredients like roast beef and shrimp avocado, along with a selection of crisp vegetables, ultimately ensuring a high-quality dining experience for all customers.
