The Company...

Valley Subs of Arizona, LLC and Sub in the Sun, LLC DBA Jersey Mike's Subs (the“Company”).

Our Locations...

The combined LLCs operate 35 stores across the state of Arizona. Our clean and welcoming store interiors, fresh product prepared in front of our customers and our friendly banter between our guests and team members make our organization an exciting and vibrant company to be a part of. The quality of our product and the outstanding service of our teams, create a loyal customer base with solid repeat business. Not only do we make great subs, but we believe in making a difference in our communities. Giving is a critical component of the Jersey Mike's brand and every store we open partners with a charity in the local community. Not only that, but during the last Wednesday of every March, 100% of sales are donated to charity.
