Subway has announced the opening of 33 new outlets across 17 cities in India during the first quarter of FY26, bringing its total store count in the country to over 900. This update follows the addition of 15 stores in the previous quarter, reflecting the brand’s ongoing expansion strategy in one of its highest-growth global markets.
The growth includes expansion into new Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities, a move aligned with Subway’s broader plan to strengthen its footprint beyond metro regions. The company has indicated its intent to cross the 100-store mark by the end of the current fiscal year.
India continues to be a priority market for Subway, driven by long-term investment potential and opportunities for regional partnerships. The brand’s current strategy involves not just geographical growth but also continuous product development tailored to shifting consumer tastes.
India’s rapid urbanisation, growing demand for international quick-service restaurant formats, and increasing preference for customisable food options have made the market critical to Subway’s global playbook.
