Why do I have to order my supplies from your vendor?

We require all franchisees to order food from an approved food distributor. This ensures that all Subway^® restaurants have the best quality food while allowing maximum savings. Subway^® has an Independent Purchasing Cooperative (IPC). IPC is a franchisee-owned and operated purchasing cooperative that negotiates the lowest costs for goods and services while maintaining quality, standards and ensuring the best value for Subway^® franchisees.
