Jersey Mike’s announced a new catering program this week that provides customers with a more secure meal option for gatherings. The program offers contact-less choices for guests that include:
· Subs By The Box: Features individually wrapped and labeled subs. Each box feeds 12 people. The box includes four sub varieties, prepared the sub shop’s iconic “Mike’s Way.” (onions, lettuce, tomatoes, “the juice” and spices).
· Individual Lunch Boxes: Perfect for grab and go. Lunch boxes come with a choice of two sub sizes (regular or mini), with sub sandwiches prepared Mike’s Way. Each box includes a bag of chips and a fresh-baked cookie. A 20 oz. bottled drink can be added.
Cookie and brownie platters are also available.
“Although planned before the pandemic, our updated catering program addresses the need for individually wrapped meal options requested by so many of our customers,” said Rich Hope, Chief Marketing Officer, Jersey Mike’s Franchise Systems, Inc. “Demand right now is for catering options for small gatherings as well as for feeding essential workers.”
Jersey Mike’s also using the introduction to hint at a new contemporary design launching in outlets nationwide. The graphics on the catering boxes mirror the the new store design.
Customers can order no-contact through Jersey Mike’s website or the Jersey Mike’s app.
During the pandemic, franchise owners across the country have donated millions of sub sandwiches to healthcare workers, seniors, and children. Jersey Mike’s also donated more than $2 million to Feeding America and $1 million to Aaron Judge’s ALL RISE Foundation.
