At Which Wich®, we take sandwiches to a whole new level - it would only make sense for us to do the same with our franchises

Which Wich is an American brand making seriously superior sandwich meals (using 40+ toppings) and famous loaded breakfast muffins cooked fresh to order.

Founded in Dallas, Texas, in 2003 and swiftly expanding across the globe with its premium sarnie-led kerb appeal, Which Wich is now in the UK, kicking off just behind London’s buzzy Tottenham Court, and now available for delivery or click and collect in Shoreditch, with big plans for more branches.

Our brand is totally craveable. With more than 300 locations open or in development in the US and internationally, you could call us something of a big deal. Forbes even ranked us #6 out of more than 3,000 food chains for “Best Franchises in America!”

Which Wich is strategically positioned in the fast casual sector, the fastest growing segment of the restaurant industry. The brand’s concept is made-to-order food using fresh high quality, locally sourced ingredients coupled with being able to customise your own ‘WICH’ through a special ordering system that ultimately gives you a personalised sandwich bag

“We live by The Vibe—the positive energy that’s at the heart of our culture and courses through the veins of the Which Wich system,” Sinelli said. “When I founded Which Wich, I really wanted to build a special company where every member of the team would feel like they were making an impact in their local community, on the world and in people’s lives. That’s more important today than ever before."
JEFF SINELLI, Founder, CEO and Chief Vibe Officer

Due to our success in the US, we have a very well-oiled franchise system and are now looking to take the UK by storm.

The Which Wich Franchise Opportunity

Which Wich has spent years perfecting our craft and that means we’ve gone to extraordinary lengths to ensure the nuances between the UK and USA markets are consistent with delivering a superior experience for every franchisee that joins the Which Wich family. Plus, we’re continually thinking up new ways to help you make franchise ownership easy and profitable. The only thing missing is your good vibes, positive energy, and solid work ethic.

Guests love us for our foodie vibes and franchisees love us for our emphasis on self-expression and personality. More than that, our franchisees are backed by one of the best support systems in the industry

Which University involves classroom time and plenty of hands-on training. We have experts in real estate, construction, training, purchasing and distribution, marketing, and operations. In addition to our team’s expertise, we foster relationships with the restaurant industry’s top vendors and research firms.

Each and every team member is dedicated to helping new franchisees develop their location and implement our tried-and-true business model founded on superior sandwiches, quality service, and a simply unique ordering system (Which Wich was the first concept to use an interactive, fully customizable bag ordering system.)

We also offer catering and delivery services.

Through our UK master partner, we are looking to open in key towns and cities across the country. We are keen to speak to experienced F&B partners as well as those with a successful business track record in a non-food related industry.

Our Key Advantages

Industry Leading Franchise Model
Which Wich’s sustainable growth is highly related to its franchisee selection strategy. Our company spends the time and effort to ensure we choose the perfect franchisees and, in turn, strive to make our franchisees as successful as possible.

Successful Operations
You don’t need prior restaurant experience! Our franchise training program covers everything you need to know about the business. Our approach is simple: We keep to the core business of making great “Wiches” fast and focus on giving our customers the ultimate sandwich experience. We’re also relentless in our pursuit of new ways to innovate and help franchisees connect with their customers and run stores more efficiently.

Affordable To Open
We’ve designed our stores with cost in mind. We treat your investment as our own and work closely with our vendor partners to make sure we have the best possible pricing for our franchisees. By doing so, we’re able to maintain a low point of entry.

Purchasing Power
As a franchise owner, you get to leverage Which Wich’s buying power in order to benefit from the negotiated pricing and terms. Superior purchasing power equates to greater profit margins for you.

Dedicated Support and Tools
We understand that many of our franchisees are new to not only franchising, but restaurants as well. That’s why we’ve spent the time developing and perfecting our Superior Support System so that you’ll never be alone in the process.
