Regional Master Franchise Rights For Port of Subs + Flagship Site
Asset Sale Description
SACRAMENTO REGIONAL DEVELOPER RIGHTS — FLAGSHIP INCLUDED
$500,000 buys the development rights to greater Sacramento and the flagship restaurant that anchors the market. We will partner with you to build twenty units over the next decade, and you get 50% of every fee and royalty generated in the region for the next twenty years as our local partner.
WHY SACRAMENTO?
Port of Subs has been slicing meats and cheeses in front of the guest since 1972 — fresh-baked bread, made-to-order, signature zesty dressings. Reno is our founding market, and it sits 130 miles up I-80 from Sacramento. Every ski weekend, every Tahoe trip, every Reno run goes through our stores. Sacramento already knows this brand.
What it doesn't have is supply. This is one of the largest undeveloped Port of Subs markets in the country, in a metro where the national sandwich chains are saturated and fighting over the same corners. You get first pick of real estate in a market nobody has built out.
WHAT'S INCLUDED
Regional development rights to greater Sacramento with an agreed 20-unit development schedule. The flagship restaurant — your show store, Discovery Day site, and training location. Full Regional Developer training at no charge. A $15,000 market branding campaign, matched dollar-for-dollar by corporate.
The flagship sits on an A+ Sacramento site, and our real estate team runs trade-area analysis, site selection, LOI and lease negotiation, and construction management with you.
HOW YOU GET PAID
Two streams, for the life of the agreement:
50% of the initial franchise fee on every new franchise signed in your region.
50% of the ongoing royalty from every franchisee you support in territory.
Ten-year term plus a ten-year renewal. And because you sit on both sides of the ledger, you effectively pay only half the royalty on the stores you own yourself. Nothing caps you at one unit — develop as many company stores inside your own territory as you want, on top of the fee and royalty income from everyone else's.
THIS IS A PARTNERSHIP, NOT A HANDOFF
You are not being handed a map and wished luck. Corporate develops this market with you: lead generation and advertising, sales process, working leads through our FranConnect CRM, and helping close franchise deals in your region. You'd be working directly with the executives who make the decisions, not a field consultant and a portal.
Training runs roughly 94–114 classroom hours plus on-the-job time in certified stores: franchise development and FDD compliance, CRM, development finance, real estate and site selection, construction, and your market entry plan. You're also trained on the complete four-week franchisee program so you can run a Certified Training Store and onboard your own operators.
WHO THIS IS FOR
Multi-unit QSR operators and experienced restaurant groups in Northern California who want to own a market rather than a store. Qualification: $1M net worth, $500,000 liquid, and franchise, QSR, or restaurant operating experience. The flagship needs a real operator — this is not a passive investment.
NEXT STEP
Sacramento is the market we most want to get right, and we'd rather build it with an operator who already knows how to run here. Reach out and we'll walk the territory map, the development schedule, and the full financial picture.
This is not an offer to sell a franchise. Offers are made only by Franchise Disclosure Document in compliance with applicable law.
