		<description>Quiznos Corporate is the most under handed and deceptive company that I have ever seen are heard about in the franchise food industry.

It has come to my attention that they are nothing more than dishonest LAW firm that happens to sell sandwich franchises.

They have attorneys working around the clock to amend and design their Franchise circular, and their FRANCHISE AGREEMENT AGREEMENT to be able to take as much and as frequent monies from their signed in franchisees as they see fit.

Their entire opportunity is really a SCAM and if you really have interest you need to have Quiznos make available the Circular, Franchise Agreement and their tricky operations manual for at least a 2 week study, and investigation by your private personal contract attorney of choice. Also I am attaching this letter by a previous Quiznos franchisee for everyone that could be interested in Quiznos as an Investment: Please read this with much seriousness and respect towards the person that wrote it.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 

Life goes on and we pass through

Days of sunlight days of tears

It’s the way life comes to you

Foolish wasting precious years

 

I am not a fool. My wife is not a fool

I even refuse to call myself gullible. I am not a gullible. My wife is not a gullible

We trusted in Quiznos. They promised us success, help and everything else to get us to buy into the

“dream” they were selling. They had a private secret unannounced agenda! To trap you and screw you,

the franchisee!

We are not fools. But, we have been fooled

We are like so many others who also bought into this dream and lost a substantial portion of their life’s

savings.

Countless individuals and families have been destroyed. Even some lives have been lost

I have struggled hard and did the best I could to create a voice for the franchisees in the system and to

create a “support system” for the franchisees, which does not exist, and to fight the injustices of this

franchise system (Quiznos). Not to bring the system down, but only to make it fair.

I hope my efforts will not go wasted. I hope the government will look into the systematic deceitful

business practices of this franchisor. A serious investigation must be undertaken

It’s been a tough battle

I have been dragged through the legal system for over 18 months by the immensely superior financial

might of the franchisor, which will continue to keep justice from coming to me, and to the hundreds

and thousands of franchisees who are trapped similarly in the system and are slaving for this

franchisor, and those who have bought into the franchise agreement, and not yet become store

operators

I have spent and sacrificed my time, money, family life. I thought of an option to leave the system

quietly and fade away, but now I choose not to do that, and instead let the struggle go on

My struggle will continue after my sacrifice.

Some one must do something about what Quiznos is doing to the trapped franchisees. Everything they

do is in their own self interest, with utter disregard for the interests of the franchisees, to who they sold

the “dream” and put into business, only to screw them systematically from day one

The press and the media must bring out the atrocities Quiznos is carrying on with.

In this franchise system the Franchisor has all the rights and no duties or obligations, whereas it is just

the opposite for the Franchisee, which is the franchisee has no rights, no remedies, only obligations

I have not been able to think well, eat well, for the past one month

My health has been going down very fast

My mental capacity, to think, to work, and carry on my daily activities normally, is severely

diminished

I cannot survive like this much longer

Quiznos has killed me. Destroyed my life. Destroyed my family life for the past seven years

It has been a harrowing experience. We just could not get out of it. All doors were shut

Can some one stop this?

Can the government stop this Quiznos from destroying peoples lives? They have defrauded me and

they are defrauding people. See my law suit (complaint) how they defrauded me from the very

beginning, and then continued their systematic defrauding through out the period, until we left

They retaliated against me for trying to create a voice for the franchisees in the system

We were abused, we were manipulated, we were exploited,

I deeply regret getting in to Quiznos. I wish I had never heard of them

Can the media stop this?

CNN we need your help. Nancy Grace, please help! Glora Alred? Who else?

KTLA, LA Times, OC Register Please

How can a common individual like me and those like me in similar circumstances, there are thousands,

with limited resources get justice?

I believe there will be justice. But it will be too late for me.

There are a large and growing number of us who believe, unreservedly, that the handful of people who

own and/or otherwise control the Quiznos Corporation should spend the rest of their lives in prison.

The Quiznos Corporation is just one of the most egregious in what they do, but the entirety of

franchising in America is open to this kind of abuse. The IFA (International Franchise Association) is

the umbrella entity that, along with individual Franchisors, has enough money and power to buy the

legislation that protects the Franchisor, and exploits the Franchisee. Fair and just legislation, that

would level the playing field, never sees the light of day. Senators and Representatives, primarily

Republicans, continue to sell hard working Americans down the river. STAY FAR, FAR AWAY

FROM THE QUIZNOS CORPORATION. THEY ARE CRIMINAL IN WHAT THEY DO. And treat

any Franchise System with deep suspicion

		<description>Everyone in this sandwich QSR should be on the $5 marketing bandwagon by now. This is the new value expectation level in the industry and everyone is jumping in at that level. 
According to NRN, Subway has seen same stores sales increase an average 17% in 2008. I have seen some stores over 40%, in a bad economy.

Ride the $5 wave folks, it is good for everyone

		<description>My store makes money. . But I should be doing better... I work my butt off yet I a barely make a profit.  I delivery and push catering like crazy.  I personally got all my catering business.  Quiznos marketing should being in people through the door but it doesn&#039;t.  The reality is that Quiznos is in the business of selling food and services.  Therefore their business model conflicts with the franchisee buisness model.  The food is good.. But the business model for trhe franchisee just doesn&#039;t work.
