Restaurant India News: Subway India reaches Historic Landmark of 1,000 Stores

Subway, one of the world’s largest quick service restaurant brands in freshly made-to-order, customisable sandwiches, announced the opening of its 1,000th store in India at Paras Florett, Gurugram.

This historic milestone reflects the brand’s strong growth across the country.

With an average of two new stores opening every week over the last three years, it is among one of the fastest-growing premium quick service restaurant brands in India.

“This is a defining moment in time for Subway India’s growth trajectory and reflects the increasing scale of the brand’s ‘Better for You’ menu positioning across India. We are very grateful to our customers for their trust. I would also like to thank the thousands of Sandwich Artists and the great team working relentlessly across our stores, delighting customers every day. We look forward to the next 1,000,” shared Tarun Bhasin, CEO, Culinary Brands (Subway India).

Operated by EverBrands (part of Everstone Group), Subway India has in the last three years, opened 350+ stores in new locations in its network, expanding its footprint into over 165 cities with 3,500+ employees.

Since its entry into the Indian market in 2001, Subway India continues to rank among Subway’s top global growth markets, encouraged by rising demand for fresh, customisable, value-driven food offerings.

Subway’s rapid expansion has been supported by a consistent evolution of its menu offerings -- including the value-oriented Sub Cravers range starting at INR 79, indulgent range Hot & Cheesy Signature Subs, Fresh Salads with 1.5x protein, and an innovative all-day Breakfast range, catering to the fast-paced Indian lifestyle. The Signature Rice Bowls offering a new range of flavours and customisable options designed with the Indian palette in mind, are the most recent addition to the already vibrant Indian menu. These offerings represent Subway’s ethos of adaptation to dynamic consumer preferences.
